Adonis Baths
Λουτρά του Άδωνη
A privately run waterfall and natural pool in a valley, said to be where Adonis and Aphrodite met. Swimming and jumping into the water are allowed.
The Adonis Baths lie in a valley near the village of Kili, about 12 kilometers north of Paphos. The site consists of a waterfall about 10 meters high and the natural pool beneath it. Legend says that Aphrodite, goddess of love, met the beautiful youth Adonis here. The site is privately operated and charges an entry fee of about 10 euros. It has a small museum and a bar-restaurant, and swimming and diving are allowed. The road to the valley is steep and gravel, so ordinary cars should drive carefully. You can also transfer to a local four-wheel-drive shuttle at the junction. The water is cold, and visitors should take care during the rainy season.
