“Discover the Akamas Peninsula”
The Akamas National Park is possibly the most picturesque corner of the island. Akamas peninsula is where you will find wild landscape, amazing natural beauty, deep gorges, and wide sandy bays.
The excursion begins by going towards Paphos with our first stop at the birthplace of Aphrodite. According to legend, it was here, next to the rock of Petra Tou Romiou where the Goddess was born from the foam of the Sea. We will then continue our way to the Akamas peninsula where we will visit Avakas Gorge – a natural wonder of the island with 30 meters high limestone walls. Here, we will stop for a walk deeper inside, to get breath-taking views of natural beauty.
Then we will enjoy the picture-perfect views of Sea Caves and Lara bay widely known as the sole breeding ground in the Mediterranean of the Green Turtle. After passing through a fascinating landscape you will have the chance to relax and taste the traditional Cypriot cuisine in one of the best restaurants in the area of Latsi. (lunch is optional and is not included in the price).
After lunch, we will visit Aphrodite’s bath, the Goddess of love where according to the legend she used to bath there with her lover Adonis. Legend also has it that the waters have magical rejuvenating properties.
Program may alter slightly during the winter months between November till March.
