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.

Molos park Limassol

his seafront of Limassol is located in front of the center city which is next to the old port until the Olympion beach and is one of the most beautiful parks in the Mediterranean basin. 

In 1878 the construction of the first major pier started in Cyprus and inaugurated in 1881. 

But it do not stop there after having the steamboats continually approach the anchorage, they had to make a bigger space after the government's decision to help the municipality financially, so in 1912 the waterfront was constructed.

n 1972 with the new mayor of the city the backfill is done and becomes a huge space as you see it today.

Untill today there have been extensions to Molos turning it into a huge long beautiful beach and diversify, thanks to the pressure and interest of Limassolians to the point of the complete demolition of all buildings in the coastal municipal boundaries, to end up as the current Olympians coast.

From the pier you can go on foot to Anexartisias street that is known for its shops, to the Limassol castle, which is surrounded by cafes and restaurants, to the Limassol Marina, which is one of the most important and best ports of the Mediterranean.
