Coral Bay Strip Renovations - March Update
It's time for the March Update on the renovations occurring on the Coral Bay Strip. So on Wednesday I met up with the two responsible engineers for a progress report. Come and find out how it is going...
Site Entrance
So once again I find myself at the site entrance to the Coral Bay Strip Renovations Project. Today (March 27th) is overcast, which means the pictures will all look a bit gloomy. However, I am happy to report that the project itself is going well.
Meet My Chaperones
I obviously wasn't allowed to wander around the site on my own. I met with the same two people who showed me around in February. This is Demitris, the Supervising Engineer. I last saw him at the Carnival, where he was in costume and looked a bit different! We chatted about this while we waited for the site to go on a 10 minute tea break. This was our signal to begin the tour.
And this is the Municipal Engineer and the Coordinator of the Project, Mr Pantelis Pantelidis.
View From Above
I also brought my drone with me, so you can have a better view of what is going on. In total I will publish three films on my visit today. Coral Bay Strip Renovations - March Update is live now, and accompanies this article. There will also be a film of drone footage, and a driving film where I show you how to get to the restaurants that are still open.
Changes
The first question I asked my hosts was naturally enough - how is the project progressing? I was very pleased to hear that it is on schedule and they were still looking at the Strip re-opening by the end of April. There will be a bit of work to do in May, but it will be open come the end of April.

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.
