Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside
We're having a bit of an Indian Summer in Paphos at the moment. The Reservoir Water-Level's loss is the Icecream Seller's gain. It is the perfect weather for a spot of people watching.

Artistic Caricature
There are a number of stalls along the seafront, with a variety of wares. Presumably this chap will draw you your own picture, rather than sell you an old sketch of Mr Bean.
Bob's Brother
We featured a sponge seller in the first part of this series. I've just checked, and this is a different seller. So the Paphos Harbour Sponge Market must be fiercely competitive.

I wonder where they grow? I haven't seen any while I have been out snorkelling. Mind you if I did see one I might not notice it. I am too busy keeping an eye out for sharks and jelly fish.
The First Of Many
Along the sea front are a variety of stores. There are lots of bars and restaurants, but you will also find other places, like opticians, leather shops and jewellers. Like in most cities, you will pay a premium for eating in these places. Food here is a bit more expensive than the village taverns, for instance. Even so, they are fairly reasonable compared to typical European cities.

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.
