Paphos Life

Today Coral Bay Strip revealed itself to the waiting public for the first time since being renovated. I was there with the camera to take in the scene. Amazingly, all the trees had arrived since Thursday. There is still a bit of landscaping to finish and the odd snag, but it was a pleasure to walk u...

On my way to report on the ongoing renovation of Poseidonos Avenue, I walked up bar Street to see how that was looking. Why not see for yourself?

I was down at the Sea Front today and adjusted the brightness again. Last time I was wearing sunglasses so the image was a bit bright.

Looks nicer now. This was from this evening.

We start today's film at the Lidl Roundabout, and drive down the B7 to Kennedy Square. From there we head to Kings Avenue Mall and the Sea Front before driving through Kato Paphos and up Bar Street. We double back on ourselves to take a quick look at Poseidonos Avenue, before driving past Fabrica Hi...

Hmmm, it could be a mundane reason. Without giving his private email address away, it was uncommon and not one of the usual providers (hotmail etc). He obviously had his own domain registered. That domain is now available. This would indicate that he stopped renewing it. Every domain name, like paph...

I sent him a PM a while ago and it hasn't been opened.

Wow that story took a nasty turn for the worse.

I am amazed you didn't photograph them though!

Here'a the article that goes with it:

The President of the Republic of Cyprus is due to officially open Coral Bay Strip on May 25th at 10AM. Prior to that, I popped down to have a look to see how the work was progressing. This film was recorded on the morning of the 23rd.

In this film we start at Lighthouse Beach and drive up to Coral Bay. Along the way we list all the hotels we pass, and there are quite a few. This isn't a definitive guide. We shall wait for the Strip to re-open before we do that. However, if you want to know what your options are between Paphos and...

Ah Corallia Beach. In a fight between this and its neighbour, Coral Bay Beach, who do you think would win? Both have their supporters, and both are lovely places to go for a swim and a spot of sunbathing. Mind you, Corallia Beach does have a nice little harbour next to it. Honestly though, you are s...

That probably means it is designed to be used on a mobile phone.

Paphos Sea Front is gorgeous when the sun is shining. Take a stroll along the walkway and soak up the scenery.

Up until a few years ago the Municipal Market in Old Town was covered. The roof was removed some time ago, but today the Mayor Phedon Phedonos announced that they are planning on adding shade.

This film continues from our recent drive from Ineia to Lara Bay. Now we are heading back to civilisation via the main coast track from the bay to Agios Georgios. Since filming this, they have reopened the road around White River Bay, so the latter part became redundant. Hence, the film now finishes...

The sun certainly had its hat on when I sent the drone buzzing around Coral Bay early on Sunday Morning. There are a couple of brave swimmers but it is still a bit too chilly for me. It is certainly warm enough to get a nice tan though, if you are into sun worshipping. For more information on the be...

Out of curiosity why do you want to use a VPN to access your banking app? You may find that the banking app doesn't like being used with a VPN. Most people use VPNs to view location-specific content (ie you must be in a specific country) or to mask the fact that they are using a service (eg torrents...

It's been a week since we had our site visit, so this morning I went down to see what progress had been made in the interim. The vast majority of the road seems to be finished now. The workers appeared to be finishing the tiles by brushing cement dust between them. That's what it looked like to me a...

Vretsia is an abandoned village at the top end of the Xeros River. If you are going on a jeep safari through Paphos Forest you will no doubt travel through here along your way to the Venetian Bridges. It is a beautiful place tinged with sadness. Cyprus has more than it's fair share of abandoned vill...

This is the 360 version of the film we published a few days ago. It was recently announced that the old route to Last Castle (and Avakas Gorge) had re-opened. So we went for a drive to see if the claims were true. They were. In this extended 360 version of our previous film with commentary, we start...
