Paphos Harbour

Paphos Harbour is a picturesque waterfront on the Kato Paphos seafront, prized by visitors for its relaxed atmosphere and sweeping Mediterranean views. A recently redeveloped, well-maintained promenade lines the water, edged with cafés, bars, tavernas, ice-cream parlours and souvenir shops where fishing boats and tour vessels bob side by side. At the end of the harbour stands the medieval Paphos Castle, which you can enter for a small fee and climb for panoramic views over the harbour and sea.

A variety of boat trips depart daily, from glass-bottom boats to day cruises, and it sits within easy walking distance of the Paphos Archaeological Park and other landmarks. It is a pleasant, clean and convenient spot for a coffee, a meal or an evening stroll, with clean public toilets nearby and plenty of people-watching. Whether you visit in the calm of early morning or the golden light of late afternoon, the harbour is one of the most enjoyable and central places to unwind in Paphos.
