Paphos Seafront Walkabout
Following on from our Sunday Morning Stroll around Paphos Harbour, we have now turned our attention to the Sea Front. Starting at the municipal Baths end, we walk back towards the Harbour taking in the tranquil beauty that is Paphos Sea Front on a glorious late summer's day.
Baywatch

We begin our adventure today next to the Lifeguard Station at the eastern end of the Sea Front. Even the mother of the carpenter who erected that platform would have to admit that it has seen better days. So when the lifeguards were complaining earlier in the year, about the facilities, you can certainly see their point of view.
Hotel Annabelle

The sunbeds at the rear end of the Hotel Annabelle are looking quite tempting. It's a bit too early in the day for them to be occupied though.
Yes, It's A Blue Flag

Believe it or not, but this little area is actually a Blue Flag Beach. It is important to note that the blue flag status is not just about the ease with which a sand castle can be erected. Other factors such as quality of water and facilities are taken into account. The waters around the whole of Cyprus, and especially Paphos, are very clear. The piles of seaweed you see dumped during the winter storms are a testament to this. They consist of sea grass remains, which only flourish in clean water.
This is also a great spot for snorkelling if the sea is calm.
Aerial View

And don't forget, in this little mini-series, we have drone footage as well as the usual camera shots. So you get a selection of pictures normally destined for our daily Kalimera posts on Facebook as well. In this shot you can see the waves that make up the floor design by the outdoor gym. Behind them, a row of seating / flowerpots has also been added.
Potty Time

Let's take a closer look at those flower pots. I am pleased to note that they have also made provisions for bins. You can see one behind the third ring from the front. Between each ring there is more seating. I saw these round rocks up behind the restaurants at the harbour, way back in winter. I wondered at the time where they would end up. Now we know.
The rings will soon no doubt be full of soil and plants, like their counterparts at the harbour.

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.
