Things To Do

Cyprus, an island in the eastern Mediterranean, offers a diverse array of activities for every type of traveler. With its rich history, stunning beaches, and vibrant culture, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Here we have prepared a list with some ideas and recommendations of things you can do in Cyprus based on our personal preferences and experiences. We encourage you to explore and decide what you would like to do and discover on your own.

Archaelogical Places

For history enthusiasts, Paphos offers a treasure trove of archaeological wonders that are essential to visit. Begin with the Kato Paphos Archaeological Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site featuring stunning mosaics, ancient theatres, and Roman villas. Next, explore the Tombs of the Kings, an impressive necropolis with grand underground tombs dating back to the 4th century BC. Finally, venture to the ancient city of Kourion, perched on a cliff overlooking the sea, where you can marvel at the well-preserved Greco-Roman theatre and intricate mosaics. These sites provide a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Paphos.

Culture & Religion

For a cultural and religious experience in Paphos, visit the serene Monastery of Agios Neophytos, a perfect retreat for peace of mind. Since you'll be in Paphos during the autumn grape harvest, take the opportunity to visit local wineries for wine tasting. The Vasilikon Winery in the picturesque village of Kathikas is a must-see. Additionally, explore more traditional villages such as Omodos and Lefkara, where you can discover handcrafts and authentic Cypriot food. These experiences offer a deeper connection to the rich heritage and traditions of the region.

Nature & Sport Activities

Paphos is a haven for sports and nature enthusiasts, offering many activities and stunning natural beauty. Start your day with a walk along the Paphos coast, taking in the serene views and the historic medieval castle. Explore Akamas National Park's breathtaking Avakas Gorge Nature Trail. In Peyia, the intriguing sea caves and shipwrecks add mystery to your exploration. Relax on beautiful beaches like Venus Beach, Sandy Beach, Lara Beach, and Latsi Beach. A Blue Lagoon Cruise offers an idyllic escape with opportunities to dive into crystal-clear waters. For adventure seekers, Paphos provides water sports like jet skiing, boat trips, and scuba diving. End your day with one of Paphos' spectacular sunsets, the perfect conclusion to a day of outdoor excitement.

Live like a local

For a delightful brunch and coffee experience, Omikron Brunch, Alea, and Suite48 Seafront Oasis are fantastic choices. You can also grab a coffee and savory snacks from a local bakery and enjoy them while strolling along the coast. For authentic Mediterranean cuisine in Paphos, we recommend Agora, Koutourou Ouzeri, and Fettas Tavern. For fresh seafood, head to the Latsi area or Kato Paphos, where you'll always find the catch of the day. If you're seeking a romantic setting during sunset, Oniro by the Sea or Ouzeri Almyra are perfect spots. Muse, an all-day bar and restaurant, offers stunning views and delicious dishes. Start your night with a cocktail at Rum and Jam or Kinky Bar, where you'll meet many young people. Beer lovers will appreciate the extensive selection at Beerom Craft Pub, and for dancing, Mr. Tippler Bar is the place to be.
