Pissouri offers Mediterranean lifestyle and is close enough to the bigger towns and bathing to enjoy a complete holiday getaway.
Pissouri Village is one of Cyprus’ most beautiful villages of great character and charm, perched on a hill overlooking one of the most breathtaking views of the island. Set on the eastern slopes of the 800 feet high ridge reaching the sea at Cape Aspro, it is possible to see the countryside and the shoreline all the way to Limassol to the east. To the north one can see the whole of the Troodos range, including Mount Olympus, the highest mountain on the island.
Visitors can find almost anything they want in Pissouri; several small shops, supermarkets and banks and an amazing number and variety of traditional tavernas, restaurants and bars, serving food and drink of exceptional quality. During the summer there is a traditional “Cyprus night” in the lovely village square with dancing and music attracting locals and visitors alike.
The Pissouri area is also famous for growing grapes, mainly in the valley between the sea and the main roads that lead to Pissouri Bay. The Bay area offers a collection of informal tavernas and shops, with a clean, safe beach, mix of sand and shingle. Water sports are also available during the season.
Within minutes, you can reach the nearby landmark of Aphrodite's Rock with clear blue sea and stretch of pebble beach adjacent to Aphrodite Hills, one of the most luxurious and up market resorts in the Eastern Mediterranean, which combines a Championship 18-Hole Golf Course, premier Golf Academy and Driving Range along with superb recreation and dining facilities. Golfers can also enjoy the nearby prestigious Secret Valley Golf Resort renowned amongst golfing visitors to this area.
