Baths of Aphrodite
Welcome to the Baths of Aphrodite, a hidden gem in Akamas National Forest Park.
Don’t be fooled by its simplicity; this cove is worth visiting, especially if you’re into hiking!
As I did from Paphos, get there early in the morning and enjoy the scenic trek up the hill with breathtaking views of the sea and fresh Cypriot breeze.

And when you’re ready to refuel, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the cozy cafe across the way, where you can soak up stunning coastal views while enjoying a refreshing drink.
