CYPRUS: BATHS OF APHRODITE
From Paphos, continuing west for about twenty kilometers by road, you will reach the beautiful beaches near the town of Maa.
This is Coral Bay Beach: taking a quick swim here is a must!
Heading north, you enter the Akamas Peninsula region.
This is a protected national park that offers stunning landscapes and rather wild coves.
The Akamas Peninsula is also home to a small gem: the Baths of Aphrodite.
Legend has it that the goddess of love herself bathed in this natural grotto, known for its magical waters and surrounded by lush greenery.
After a short hike, you will discover the mythical charm and serene beauty of this place.
