What To Expect

Peyia
Pegeia is situated mainly on the steep slopes of the coastal hills inland from Coral Bay, at the southern end of the Akamas Peninsula. The origin of the name Pegeia is said to derive from the Latin word Baia (Bay). The village itself was first settled by Venetians, during the Venetian Domination of Cyprus (1489-1570).

Edro III Shipwreck
The Sierra Leone-flagged EDRO III ran aground on 8 September 2011 in heavy seas, during a voyage to Rhodes with a cargo of plasterboard. At the time of the accident, the ship had nine crew members – seven Albanians and two Egyptians. The crew were rescued and airlifted to safety. The EDRO III weighs about 2.5 tons and is over 80 meters in length. Embarking on the ship is no longer permitted as it is dangerous.

Sea Caves
The area boasts caves, as well as spectacular rock formations, which have taken thousands of years to form. Earlier, when the human presence was less prominent, there were seals (Monachus monachus) inhabiting the caves, which added to the popularity of the area among the sightseers.

Agios Georgios Harbour
In this area, between 1952 and 1955, the Department of Antiquities of Cyprus excavated three Early Christian basilicas and a bath, all dated to the 6th century AD. The settlement was probably a port of call for the ships that transported grain from Egypt to Constantinople. The archaeological site next to St George’s is considered to be the most significant early Byzantine site in Cyprus.

Off of the coast lies Yeronisos Island (Holy Island) that is supposed to have been part of the mainland at some point. The archaeological findings have shown three major periods of settlement: Chalcolitic, Hellenistic and Early Byzantine.

There is a church you can visit, as well as catacombs, which are thought to have belonged to the earlier version of it, as well as a little scenic marina adding to the charm and the spectacular view of St George’s.

Lara Bay Turtle Conservation Station
Akamas is the last large unspoiled coastal area remaining in Cyprus and one of the very few important sea turtle nesting grounds in the Mediterranean. Both the Loggerhead Turtle (Caretta-caretta) and the rarer Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) nest in Turtle Bay; the latter depends on the Akamas beaches for its very survival in this region. The IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature) lists Loggerheads as “vulnerable” and Green Turtles as an “endangered species”. According to the IUCN, the annual number of Green Turtle nesting females in the entire Mediterranean could be as low as 325-375. From end of May to September, you can see the nests that are protected by little enclosures.

In 1989 the Lara coastal region and adjacent sea was declared into a Protected Area. We explain more about the turtles as well.

At this stop, we swim and info about the turtles.

We stop in a cafe near Lara Beach were you can enjoy your lunch or have a snack/drink (not included in the price).

Adonis Baths Water Falls
Adonis Baths is one of the most beautiful and unique areas in Cyprus. Tradition says that Adonis, the God of Beauty, tended his horses in this place and hunted in the Akamas forest. According to Greek mythology, Adonis and Aphrodite had many children here, and the citizens of Paphos are supposed to be descendant of these two lovers.

Here, we stop for swimming. The entrance to Adonis bath and waterfalls is 7 Eur per person (not included)

Fantastic day out, well organised and the staff were very friendly, the only downside to this was the lunch provided on the day, the chicken kebab was cold and chewy but not to take anything away from the main event itself, I completely enjoyed the day.
Great time

We really enjoyed the trip! The staff was very friendly and caring, the program is not too busy as we had time on each stop to enjoy the place and relax. The timing was perfect. Thanks to the team for a lovely experience!
Nice experience!

Good experience. I'd appreciate some prep info prior to the trip - some things might be obvious for people accustomed with these kinds od activities, but it was totally new to us. This means we would have appreciated advice to take e.g. googles and mouth covering with us. Additionally, the beginning of the trip was a bit rushed meaning we learnt how to operate our buggy while en route. Otherwise we appreciated the views and the route that we wouldn't have been able to take ourselves.
