Excellent international cuisine. We find they try harder as they are not in the centre of a tourist area. Great food, great value, great service.

Sightseeing
A glimpse into life thousands of years ago !! The mosaics have been gathered together into "houses" and are absolutely fascinating.
In the same park there is the 2 thousand year old "agora" (market place), a working amphitheatre (fantastic acoustics, try to catch a play or a music performance) and a working lighthouse.

You can't come to Paphos without taking a boat trip. The best boat in the harbour is the "Christ Adonis". It is a small, personal experience, with Captain Antonio and his crew welcoming you on board. There are sunset cruises, snorkelling cruises (gear provided) and days out - all at a fraction of the price of the big boats.

Essentials
The biggest and best !! The fact that it is so popular (and busy) means a very high turnover of produce - so the fish, meat, fruit & vegetables are the freshest in town - and very high quality.
Compared to northern europe, the TASTE of the tomatoes, carrots, radishes, potatoes, apples and pork is just exceptional !!
All your tourist requirements are also here, at half the price you would pay in the kiosks, and clothes, stationery, tools etc.
The coffee shop is excellent value too !
