Is Paphos a good pick for my next Cyprus sojourn?
The Independent
|September 12, 2025
I've been to Larnaca in Cyprus. Would you recommend Paphos as well?
-

Paul Y
A Yes. The city is smaller and quieter than Larnaca, with a spectacular setting jutting out into the Mediterranean. It is a place of two halves: Kato Paphos, meaning “Lower Paphos”, has a decent beach and a predictably good spread of restaurants and bars, of which Argo is particularly recommended. Many of the package holiday hotels are along the coast southeast from here. The older part of town is Ktima, is uphill and inland two miles to the northeast, and good territory to wander.
