Hiya

Paphos does have some lovely sunsets.

hi, i know i've brought this subject up again. but how much do you reckon we should be paying by taxi to go see the sunset in paphos & return price back to protaras?? or would it be worth hiring a car for 2 days? thanks

Hi Steve

To be honest I'd hire a car for a few days and visit Paphos, Limassol, Pissouri,

take a trip up the Troodos and other places en route :D There is so much to

see in Cyprus it would be a sin to miss it :wink:

They drive on the same side as us and petrol is cheap :lol:

is it straight forward driving there, i know they drive same side. but am worried about getting lost, or would that be hard to do? :oops:

Hi Stevie :D

It's a dawdle to drive over there and getting lost is nigh on impossible :D

The motorways are soooooo quiet compared to here. My hubby drives here

for a living and he'd rather drive over there any day :wink:

Here's one I prepared earlier:

Obviously not setting over the sea, but the hills that form a backdrop to Larnaca Salt Lake.

The sun sets in the west, so you will have to be in an area with the sea to its west.
The furthest east would probably be the Akrotiri end of Episkopi Bay.
Bearing in mind that this is Sovereign Base Area land, access may be limited.

And here's another

Hi Helen.

Not long now, eh? 4 weeks?

Get yourself a digital camera.
I spent almost 35 years using 35mm cameras, compacts and SLRs.
Digital is just brilliant!

Mark

PS: 6 weeks tomorrow for us.

Usually! :lol:

Tip: When driving in Cyprus, always expect the unexpected!

Most hire companies insist on a minimum of 3 days hire, but that should still be cheaper than a taxi.
Email Petsas for a quote. Ignore website prices.

Helen, there's another if you click on the link above the piccie.
I took about 20 shots in a space of about 15 minutes trying to get the best I could.

I had it in my head that you were there before us. Senior moment.

This is a sunset piccy from our wedding in cyprus- it was taken at Cape Greco. We went back there for the next two nights after to watch the sunset there- it was an amazing view.
Cape greco is not far from Ayia Napa or Protaras
