Kissonerga Community Beach May Update
Kissonerga Community Beach
The beach itself looks fine, though there are no sunbeds as of yet.
This is the view towards the Kissonerga Coast Path.
On Duty
Despite the lack of sunbeds, there was a lifeguard on duty. You can tell that because a red and yellow flag is flying. Note though, that there is also a red flag flying. This means the following:
Red – High hazard. Rough conditions such as strong surf and/or currents are present. All swimmers are discouraged from entering the water. Those entering the water should take great care.
Deceptively Calm
Given how calm the sea is here, you might be puzzled by the red flag. However, if you look at the big signs in the carpark you will see that the area is prone to riptides. So swim here at your own risk, and preferably near the lifeguard station.
Tweet
Given that Alex was taking most of the shots, it is hardly surprising to see a picture of a bird in amongst her building shots. I will leave you with this sign that nature is returning to the recently traumatised area.
I don't know the long-term plans for the beach, but if you fancy a spot of sunbathing over the weekend (it is supposed to be a hot one), then you can come here safe in the knowledge that you can at least cool off with a shower!

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.
