Geroskipou Beach Area
Ample Parking
If you have a car there are plenty of places to park. Be warned that the right hand side gets chaotic in peak times. You are better off parking in the gravel areas on the left.
And if you aren't driving, and don't fancy the walk from Central Paphos, you can get the 606 Bus from Paphos.
Welcome Shade
To avoid the worst of the sun, I walked along the path that runs at the rear of the beach between the various bars.
Outdoor Gym
There is an outdoor gym here too. They tend to get used most in the early mornings and evenings. It is worth noting that there are no sunbeds here. You will find them clustered around the bars. Most of the beach is sunbed free. There are showers here though, which you can just see on the left. So you don't have to walk all the way to a bar to get the salt off after your swim.
Gym Instructions
This is a good idea! The sign tells you how to use the Gym Equipment correctly.
Disabled-Friendly
Geroskipou Beach also has this device. It is to allow wheelchair-bound people the chance to go for a swim and maintain some dignity when they need to get out again. A few years ago Alex, my wife, badly broke her leg. We got her a waterproof bag for the cast, and she was able to go for a swim, but we had no end of trouble getting her out of the sea at the end. This would have been ideal.

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
