Local Beach Favourites On The North Paphos Coast
In August the North Coast of Paphos is very popular with the local Cypriot Population. Previously empty coves become awash with gazebos and boats. The smell of bbqs is in the air, and everybody has a good time. If you are on holiday here you will likely stick to the more tourist-suited beaches like Latsi and Polis Municipal. Alternatively there are Coral Bay, Corallia Beach, Venus, SODAP and Geroskipou Beaches on the South Coast, to name but a few. But if you are curious, this film shows you where the locals go, and how they relax.

Agios Georgios - The Tombs of Cape Drepanum - Cyprus 2024
Переглядів 4585 годин тому
Back in Hellenic and Roman times, there used to be a big quarry at what we now know as Agios Georgios, the village at the lower edge of the Akamas. This is why the church and the car park are on a cliff. Cape Drepanum is a necropolis formed from the quarry excavations. It consists of a network of tombs in the cliff walls. In this film I explore them and enjoy the view of the harbour below. For ...

Venus Beach, Paphos - August 2024

Venus Beach has been transformed over the last few years, from a rocky outcrop which was dangerous to swimmers, to a tidy beach protected by an off-shore artificial reef. Located next to the famous Tomb Of The Kings, you can reach it in 30 to 40 minutes from the Harbour if you walk along the Coast Path. This is a fantastic walk, but do take fluids with you, and shade in the form of a sun umbrel...

Yesterday was a Public Holiday in Cyprus, celebrating the Assumption of Mary. It also signifies the traditional start to the Cypriot Summer Holidays. A lot of (non-tourist-related) businesses will be closed for the next couple of weeks, as the locals put their feet up and indulge in summer fun. We went for a walk around Kato Paphos, after dark, to soak up a bit of the atmosphere. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬...
Moutallos Cliffs and Chapel

The Moutallos Cliffs dominate the western view of Paphos from the coast, yet they are off the tourist radar. In reality, they are easily accessible form the Old Town, but not many people will want to make the short walk in this heat! If you drive there you will find a nice restaurant (not open on Mondays it seems) and a lovely little chapel. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ►Help For Travellers I...

Thank you for that. Lovely back round soundtrack, breath of fresh air, as opposed to the commercially used music UA-camrs use for Republic of Cyprus videos.
Glad you liked the music. We pay a monthly subscription which gives us access to a huge music catalogue. I love music myself and always try to incorporate a decent soundtrack, so it is nice when it is appreciated.
Beautiful !! Ten days to wait 😍✈🌞
Less than three weeks now before we will be enjoying that same drive. Is that new car park you mention still free 😎🇨🇾🌞
Going to spend the day here today as we love the old town with the quirky streets and endless cafes and restaurants, must admit it took a few days to acclimatise to the weather as it’s very very hot and humid but great to be back once again
Hope you enjoy it!
Watched your videos for a while now, as we holiday here in Paphos every year and enjoy seeing all the updates. Was wondering if we would bump into you, but so funny we are on the beach setting up whilst you are filming, we feel famous now 😂
You might have heard me yelping then!
Been to Agios Georgios lots of times, we visit every year to watch the sun set. Never seen the Tombs of Cape Drepanum though. Thanks for showing us! Hope you're not too scratched.
Not to bad to be honest. I've had worse.
That was hard work hope you not scratched too much👏👏
No I got off fairly likely I think.
Absolutely beautiful ❤ I love all your vlogs xx
Thank you so much!!
And yet another glorious video, well done matey, and thank you. We'll be back there in just 12 days time. Hurrah !!😊
totally agree with you my friend, my good lady and i will be setting down in Paphos in 41 days time for 3 weeks, can't wait to return, we love it here !! x ❤
Have fun!
i think one of the cats might have been harvey. not dure on other one. harvey is normally with chippy though

Why is the landscape so brown?
Can you only access the path from the archeological site? Back in four weeks!
No it begins outside the Archaeological Park.
We did the Walkway And Fabrica Hill last time we visited and loved it 😍 Thank you for the great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent, thanks. I'll be up there in a fortnight's time 😍
Fabulous thank-you 🇨🇾💕
It's a nice place ....but where are all the people ...you hardly see anyone in the street .
I tend to film in quiet times to avoid traffic jams.
I shall explore that when I come,what was that Mosque? In the distance?❤
😁
Thanks
And thank you very much!
Breathtaking scenery. Be back there in 2 weeks, we are so excited and looking forward to being back at the Louis Phaethon. Thanks, Dominic for the wonderful memories your films evoke
Our pleasure!
pronounced ' bafos '
Thank you once again. Coral Bay strip looks good now, will have a bus ride there in December😀
Great video. I will be back at Coral Bay in September for a month. Can't wait to do that drive again 😊.
Sounds great!
Thanks Dominic, love that drive, done it many times, Tea for Two do great omelettes
Sounds great!
Thanks Dominic, love the drive from Coral Bay to Paphos 😍
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Dominic, we’re on countdown now 6 weeks to go 🌴✈️😎🌞
Hope you have a good time!
Thank you
You are most welcome!
They really have done a fantastic job in coral bay.and it's such a lovely drive.another great video.thank for the ride 😎👍
Yes it is lovely now.
Well done lovely ❤
Thank you!! 😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lovely video! I will be visiting Paphos in two weeks staying in Dionysos hotel, nice to see the direct neighbourhood in your video and am sure i will be having a great time. Thanks for the effort making this 😃
Thank you once again for a brilliant video. Good to see so many people about. We only visit Nov/ Dec and Jan/Mar so never see it like this
Our pleasure!
Hi Dominic. Love your videos. Do not wish to be rude , but poseidonos avenue is pronounced correctly as Poz E Donnos avenue and thought this would help you
Lovely colour to the water. Very different from UK beaches.
Yes the waters of Cyprus are lovely and clear.
Great video. I am always amazed how the guy who writes your name on a grain of rice has been in business for so long. Obviously it takes skill, but I can't understand why anyone would want it. The camera you used at the end definitely looks better in low light and will be good for night time videos once the focus is sorted. What camera is it?
He's expanded to include shells now! Camera is a Sony ZV-E10.
Really stunning, I'm now in Cyprus. Can I drive to the Blue Lagoon from Paphos with my rental car? What type of car did you use?
You would need to ask your rental company. There's is the only answer that matters. I used a jeep.
Great video, thanks Dominic. Love seeing the beautiful Seafront 😍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful 🥰
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for another great night video 😍
You’re welcome 😊
That lighthouse is always in my heart ❤😎🥃👍
Watched a few other bloggers for this area and must say your blogs are both varied and informative which is want the viewers want when looking for that new holiday destination, we actually come across yours looking for changes to the area and glad we did as your blogs are probably the best on here being honest. Keep up the good work and keep those videos coming they are amazing 😎
Thanks! Glad you like our stuff.

I see monsters out on a Friday night around chucking out time 🤣 Just before end of you're video I thought you had captured the aurora borealis then realised it was the glare off the lights 😂. The lighting seemed a bit off on the test video at the end but as you said you were only testing it. another great video 👍
Actually the lighting wasn't the issue. That was spot on. The colour on the seafront looks a bit weird because it is. They have amber lights for part of it. Closer to the harbour and at the far end they are whiter. The white lights look nicer.
Great video Dominic. I'm new to your channel..due to stay Leo Cypria Maris in Nov. Was last in Paphos 5 years ago..quite a few changes there since then. For the better i think. 😊
Welcome aboard!
It is as you write that Lighthouse Beach is a bit more laid-back. But I think this part (Chloraka) Venus Beach - Lighthouse Beach is a little less touristy which makes it so wonderful to walk. Experience that more local residents choose these parts.
Thanks for going past Dionysus looking forward to staying there in Oct it all looks so much nicer in that area than it was 12 years ago. Hope our paths cross while I’m there so enjoy your videos.❤
not so sure about the music, sounds kind of solemn and reflected the views lol
14:27 Gyros is pronounced like "Ghiros", not gyros, is not gyroscope :))) Paphos life, man what a good laugh at the end.
Can't stop. I'm off to cash my gyros.
How is ghiros pronounced? jiros?
