Pissouri

Enjoy Cyprus the way it has been enjoyed for centuries.

I decided that when i wrote this section i would write it from a personal perspective. I felt this needed to be done because to me Pissouri is the one place in Cyprus that can only be described from ones own point of view as opposed to relaying the standard holiday marketing jargon in an effort to attract customers. I write it as i see it.

Pissouri is a village located 15 mins drive from the Paphos airport and is situated in a stunning bay right by the sea. The bay is flanked by high hills on either side making the crystal waters as calm as a tranquil lake. The beach itself is beautiful, a sandy stretch which offers easy access to a number of restaurants, my favourite being the taverna at the right end of the beach (sea facing). We spend our Sundays there during the summer, and i recommend this to anyone spending some time in Pissouri.

Pissouri itself is comprised of the sea front village and hill top village behind, this is where one can find the more traditional restaurants tucked away in the narrow streets that once ferried donkey carts and farmers to and from market. On Wednesdays the village square puts on a Greek evening of Bouzouki and live traditional music which can be enjoyed from one of the various taverns in the square.

Pissouri offers easy access Paphos itself if you are seeking the hustle and bustle of mainstream tourist locations.

Troodos is also only 30-40mins drive away.

The nearest star attraction to Pissouri is the Aphrodite Hills Golf Course, which is 10 mins away.
