For thrill-seekers and action-lovers, we have specially designed this adventure-oriented tour of the Akamas in which participants are subjected to a series of land and sea challenges:
An adventurous boat ride of the pristine Fontana Amoroza area, with a famous ex-pirate captain
A half-day “jeep-safari” in the world’s ultimate 4×4 exploration machine: Land Rover Defender
The “sacred sands” of Lara, site of the world famous turtle conservation project
Snorkelling in brilliantly turquoise waters (some masks and snorkels are provided free of charge).
Visiting of a typical Cypriot village and the famous ‘’Baths of Aphrodite’’
Highlights
The Avakas Gorge: Perhaps Cyprus’ most impressive natural wonder, this deep canyon is famous for the sheer walls of limestone that come narrowly together to form a natural tunnel. A not-too-strenuous walk, duration of 30-40 minutes in total, is required to see the best parts of the Gorge. Decent footwear is advised.
Lara and the Turtle Conservation Project: We visit one of the most important (and pristine) beaches in the entire Mediterranean, Lara Beach, where the Cyprus Turtle Conservation Project has been saving endangered sea turtles from extinction for three decades. Learn the secrets of these sensitive and delightful sea creatures as we take you through the conservation exhibits at the beach. (Note: Turtle nesting season is June-August; the nests hatch until early October.)
The Viewpoint: Fantastic views of the beautiful surrounding areas of the Akamas Peninsula and a great opportunity to take some amazing photos.
The ‘Baths of Aphrodite’: One of the true landmarks of the Akamas, this freshwater spring is connected to the myth of Cyprus’ home-grown Goddess of Love.
The Blue Lagoon:The North-West peninsula has the most memorable coastline in Cyprus, the incredibly clear turquoise waters, precipitous forested sea cliffs and varied wildlife create a magic landscape with visual impact. To experience this area at its best, we board our special boat to tour the various coves and off-shore islands, look for sea turtles and sponges and stop at the ‘’bluest bay in Cyprus’’ for a relaxed swimming session.
