Located on the west coast of Cyprus, Paphos is steeped in history and filled with ancient places of interest and archaeological sites. The Paphos weather can reach the low 20`s out of season and up to the mid 30`s during the summer months.
There are two parts to Paphos which have almost merged into one over the years. Kato Paphos is set around the harbour on the seafront and Paphos Town, set back from the harbour on the hillside. Couples and families enjoy holidays in Paphos, benefiting from the best of both worlds; from excellent sandy beaches and lively nightlife around Kato Paphos to local bars and craft shops in the maze of narrow streets in Paphos Town.
Paphos can boast 4 beaches and a number of rocky coves to explore, as well as other fantastic beaches nearby and a number of great activities and water sports for the more active holiday makers.
Around the harbour and seafront there is a fairly lively scene with plenty of discos, bars, nightclubs and live music venues to choose from, but if you fancy a quiet evening just stroll into Paphos Old Town to sample the local bars.
Fashion boutiques and clothes shops offer the latest fashions, whilst the craft shops sell some good cheap holiday gifts, such as lace, pottery, leather wares and ceramics.
Paphos caters for all tastes when it comes to eating, from fast food outlets and British style pubs, to delicious fish restaurants and harbourside tavernas serving exquisite local dishes, such as mezze.
