Full Description
The Trip:
It is a walking trip around the north Akamas coast.
Meet/Pick up time: To be agreed with the travelers. Usually, it is between 08:30-09:30.
Itinerary: The trip is all about a customisable walk along the north coast of the Akamas peninsula.
The Walk:
The walk is in the Akamas peninsula, a pristine, almost untouched by man, rich in biodiversity. Usually, we start walking at Baths of Aphrodite and do a trip combining Adonis and Aphrodite trails. At some point we ascend to the peak known as 'Moutti tis Sotiras' from where one enjoys unobstructed views of the north Akamas coast from Cape Arnaouti, the tip of Akamas, towards the northwest to the Bay of Polis and all the way to Pomos in the northeast. After a pause for a picnic and for enjoying the majestic view, we walk to Baths of Aphrodite cave on the Aphrodite trail (the last stretch is on the coastal dirt road, near the cliff).
We can make other arrangements for shorter walks in the area if travelers prefer (eg. do the 7-km Aphrodite trail). We can also arrange to extend the walk to Blue Lagoon cove, an excellent place for swimming in Cyprus or the adjacent Fontana Amoroza cove, or even a one-way coastal walk to Fontana Amoroza/Blue Lagoon with boat transportation - for a fee - in the opposite way .
