Pomos Reservoir Overflows
The reservoirs are overflowing, which is good news. One of the first to pop was Pomos, probably because of its small size. I am always looking for an excuse to go to the Pomos area, as it is a lovely place to explore. So I took my drone and assorted cameras to see what I could see...
A New Feature
It has been a couple of years since I first visited Pomos Reservoir. It will feature in our third roadtrip eBook so I was keen to get some new pictures on the area. I looked on the map before setting off, as I wanted to see if there were any features near to the reservoir that I could investigate. Sure enough, this place popped up.

Initially I thought it was a picnic table, but it is much too narrow for that. Consider it more of a table for playing chess or backgammon on. It's real purpose though, is for people to pose in while they take Instagram pictures.
Reservoir End
I drove the length of the reservoir as I was doing a film for Google Street View. Besides, I wanted to revisit this church because there is a loo here!
Anyway, I parked up and went for a wander.
Panagia Chrysopateritissa Church
I did a walking film here, and a bit of drone flying. I had great fun trying to pronounce the name of the church.
Full Reservoir
I wrote an article on Panagia Chrysopateritissa Church a couple of years ago. Use the link to see it. The thing that I remember most vividly about the place is all the netting that surrounds it. I wonder what it is used for?

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.
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.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.
