Paphos Hotel Strip in 2024 - The Definitive Guide
Secret Beach
In front of the Amphora there is a little hidden beach. All beaches in Cyprus are open to the public, but I imagine this one is used mainly by guests at the Amphora. Other people would either have to walk past the Municipal Beach we saw earlier, or SODAP beach, which we will see in a minute, to get here. So if you want a secluded beach in the centre of Paphos, this might be worth a look.
Coast Path
By now the Coast Path is very impressive. It is also getting more crowded. Admitedly, not in this scene, but I tend to make films during the quieter times of day, to avoid unwanted interuptions.
Sodap Beach
The walkway leads you to SODAP Beach. The proper name for this is Vrysoudia A, but everybody seems to call it SODAP. This is because there used to be a Winery here, run by SODAP, a wine-makers' co-operative. Vrysoudia translates as Tap, which is the name for a bar within a brewery. So presumably there were two bars at the SODAP winery, and they were cleared to make beaches (you will see the other one in a minute). This is my own theory anyway.
They recently (in the last couple of years) built a new beach cafe here. It is lovely, but some people said it took over the entire beach. It doesn't though, as this shot shows. Incidentally, the seaweed gets cleared away before the Holiday Season starts.
The sunbeds appear too. I am not sure about some of the posher sunbeds we have seen in this article, but most sunbeds and parasols in Cyprus have a set price of €2.50.

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.
