Paphos

About the area

Paphos lies on Cyprus’s south western coast and has its own international airport – the flight time from the UK is around four and a half hours. Until the 1970s, Paphos was a sleepy fishing village – now it’s one of the most popular resorts on the island, as well as being a UNESCO world heritage site and recently a European city of culture. It’s full of history with loads of archaeological sites containing the remains of Roman villas, palaces and tombs.
