Paphos Seafront And Harbour Update
Familiar Faces
The Pelican Restaurant was open again, along with their mascot.
Kokos The Pelican
The first famous pelican known in Paphos was another pink-backed that reached the harbor on his own fully exhausted in 1967. “Grandpa Koko” fully recovered after several meals and never left, media reports said, but he was sadly killed in 1972 when he was hit by a bus. Since then there have been numerous Kokos, including the current incarnation, who replaced a 25-year veteran that died of old age.
New Work
Next to the Pelican Restaurant they had been doing some more work. It looks like they are installing a seating area. In the car park round back there are a couple of large round rocks I filmed a while ago. I wonder if they will become part of this area?
Nice Plant Wall!
At Theo's, the next restaurant along, they now have this really nice plant wall.
Mind The Puddles!
You can see in this shot that there had been some rain earlier in the day. There were a fair few puddles around.

Paphos Sea Front and Harbour
I've made a number of drone films recently of the Sea Front and Paphos Harbour. While I am filming, I also take the occasional picture, so thought it would be nice to show you some of them and add some information about how the various renovation works are progressing.Related Pages

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.
