Kato Paphos Part 7 - The Coast Path
Beach Bar
The new beach bar is, I think, closed for Winter now. However, I am happy to report that it did indeed survive the first bit of rough weather we had.
Harbour Vista
I saw a picture of it at night recently, and it is really pretty. I shall have to try and capture that scene for a future blog, possibly when I do my annual report on the Christmas Lights.
SODAP Beach
This is the first of FOUR blue flag beaches between here and the main sea front. It's official name is Vrysoudia A, though I think most people call it the SODAP beach.
In case you were wondering, SODAP stands for Synergatikos Organismos Diathesis Ambelourgikon Proionton. It is the Cooperative Organization for the Distribution of Viticultural Products. It is basically a cooperative of wine growers. From what I can gather they also own land, including this area. If somebody knows more about SODAP I would be interested to find out. I was able to add a whole chunk of information to the St Pauls section of this series when a reader supplied me with more data, So please, if you know anything, don't be shy. It is all welcome.
Amavi Hotel
We are now walking along the coast path back towards the Sea Front. To our right is the Amavi Hotel. This is unusual in Paphos in that it caters for Adult Couples. Perfect if you want to get away without the kids in tow.
Empty Beach
I think the new cafe blends in nicely with the beach, and is a positive enhancement to the area.
