Avdimou bay

 As one of the longest bays located to the west of Limassol, Avdimou Beach is a destination for those who want to relax in the serenity of the wilderness of the area..

Along this beach, you can finds one of Limassol's most famous seaside restaurants, the Kyrenia Beach Restaurant, which welcomes you to visit the area for food or drink overlooking the sea. 

The road leading to the beach crosses fertile farmable lands, since the riverbed of the Avdimou River gave life to these fields many years ago.When relatively strong winds blow in the area, the beach is also ideal for water sports such as kitesurfing, which is why the hut that hosts the equipment of Kiteflex is found on the beach, to serve those who engage in the sport.

Holy cross church at Anogyra

Situated southwest of the village of Anogyra, the Church of Timiou Stavrou is built over the foundations of an early Christian basilica. At the end of the 15th century, the present church was built overthe foundations of older churches.

In its present form, the monastery is an intricate architectural complex. Its barrel-vaulted church with a single nave and dome is decorated with wall-paintings in the Palaiologan style which, despite marked wear and tear, remain exceptional examples of Palaiologan painting in Cyprus.

The village itself is located halfway between Lemesos (Limassol) and Pafos (Paphos), 400 metres above sea level, and retains its traditional character and local customs. Surrounded by carob orchards, the ‘black gold’ of the island and the traditional sweet made from it - ‘pasteli’ - are an important part of the village’s history.
