Baths of Aphrodite

EXCURSIONS / Sites of Interest / Paphos / Baths of Aphrodite
This beauty spot is situated past the fishing harbour of Latsi towards the tip of the Akamas peninsula.

A natural pool grotto surrounded in greenery, the site lies at the end of a small nature trail. As its name suggests, the grotto is said to be where the Goddess of Love used to bathe.

Myth also has it that this is where Aphrodite met her lover, the handsome Adonis, when he stopped off for a drink while hunting. The moment he drank the water, Adonis fell in love with the goddess.

Address: Polis, Pafos
