Polis/Lachi

Is it possible to walk between Polis and Latchi ? If so how far is it ?? And what are the beaches like ?





Also is their traverns with local people working in them with traditional music/ dancing or are the Eastern Europeans working there ??





I will be there from the 5th May so not sure how quite it will be ?







Thanks

It%26#39;s certainly possible to walk between Polis and Latchi. You%26#39;ll pass through Pomos first which consists of a few shops you could take a look around - mainly restaurants and and small kiosks. After Pomos you%26#39;ll have to do a fair old walk through A-type roads until you reach the main part of Lachi.





The weather here at the moment (April 27th) isn%26#39;t too bad. Mid 20%26#39;s, drifting down to the mid teens during the evening. It%26#39;s fair to say it%26#39;s quiet here at the moment. We travelled out to Latchi the other evening and there wasn%26#39;t a soul in sight.





Latchi is somewhat of a man made tourist resort that relies on tourists. From talking to the locals they%26#39;re not expecting the main influx of people until mid June.





The peace and quiet is fantastic though. :)

Maybe got my geography wrong but isnt Pomos the other side of Polis to Latchi - we drive from Latchi via Polis to Pomos further along the coast ?????



From Latchi you can walk (or cycle along the beach path) along the sea front to the beach at Polis - the town is then about a 10-15 minute walk inland up from the beach The beaches are a a bit stoney and gritty but the swimming is good.

Just come to me - I think you mean Prodromi which is between the two resorts.




|||



Pomos is the other way towards the border. If you have never been it is lovely.

We visited Polis and Latchi many years ago, where are you staying %26quot;upthedons%26quot;? The prices for hotels in Paphos and Ayia Napa I feel are more expensive this year and we would like a change.

Forgot to mention - there is an excellent Tourist Info office in Polis. Lots of maps, books and staff keen to help.

After hearing all the stories of how expensive it is in Cyprus now, we changed our mind and are now going to Egypt on Sunday....Im sure im not the only one who will do this...





Sorry Cyprus but we,re not made of money




|||



Doh, yep I meant Pedromi. Pomos is another kettle of fish when it comes to driving, nevermind walking to :)





Sorry to hear you didn%26#39;t decide to go to Cyprus. - Have to admit it was a tad expensive for oursevles (just got back), but we kinda expected it. If you go for the pre-concieved idea you%26#39;re going to be able to spend 80p on a cup of coffee, Cyprus, or the EU for that matter, just isn%26#39;t for you.
