Best scenic drives in Cyprus

Aphrodite’s Rock

Petra tou Romiou – also known as Aphrodite’s Rock is well known to residents of Limassol and Paphos. The road and beach can get busy in peak season but you won’t find more dramatic views from the driver’s seat than this.

The combination of the beauty of the area and its status in mythology as the birthplace of Aphrodite makes it a popular tourist location – looking down from the highway is a real stunning sensation.

Heading East

This splendid coast road running from Ayia Napa to Protaras not only takes in the majestic Cape Greco- the south eastern most tip of Europe, but also the stunning Konnos Bay!

Look out for the picturesque Fig Tree Bay whilst in the Area.

Limassol – Troodos

The road twists, dips and climbs through upto the Troodos Mountains. But it will be some of the most memorable miles you can drive in any country.

Stop off at the Kouris Dam on the way up, take lunch in Troodos Square then head up to the peak of Mount Olympus.
