The Pomos Coastline
It is time to bid farewell to 2021. I don't think many people will miss it, to be frank, but we've got through it so lets hope that 2022 is better. In our final blog of the year we return once again to Pomos. I took my drone for a spin there, and got some nice shots of the coastline you would normally need a boat to see.
Dragon Cave Beach
We begin our flight in the seas around Dragon Cave Beach. This is a beautiful area of coastline which has an amazing beach if you want to experience a wilder bit of sunbathing (though not for a few months yet).
The Track Down
To Get To Dragon Cave you have to drive along the coast road from Polis to Pomos. Keep going through Pomos and just after the harbour turning there is another turning down to a small carpark. You can park there and walk down these steps.
Private Steps?
What soon became clear as I made this film, was that there were actually quite a lot of staircases going down to the shore. I think some of them must be private though.
Far Point
This was as far as I could safely fly the drone to, so it is a good point to start our adventure. And by adventure I mean film. I did a nice film for the "Relaxing Cyprus" series. It starts here and flies towards Pomos Harbour and the coast beyond.
Yes, the second set of stairs, on the left here, definitely seem to originate in somebody's back garden.
To be honest, I hadn't much hope of getting any good material when I made this film. The light was fading, and the wind was picking up. However, I was quite pleased with the results, and thought it would be a nice way to end 2021.

Polis Beaches Part 3
In the final part of our look at the beaches along the north coast of Paphos, we travel from Pomos to Polis, finishing up with a slap-up meal at our favourite kebab joint. If you want quieter beaches in beautiful surroundings, then this area will not disappoint. We visited these beaches more times than was strictly necessary to make this blog, which shows that we have saved what we consider to be some of the best Paphos beaches to last.
Pomos Reservoir Church
Panagia Chrysopateritissa Church is tucked away on the banks of Pomos Reservoir, in the outskirts of the Paphos Forest. If you fancy a break from the summer heat, or just like exploring hidden Cyprus, then it is well worth a visit.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.
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.
