Edro III Shipwreck
Ναυάγιο EDRO III
The wreck of a cargo ship that ran aground beneath sea cliffs in 2011. Its rust-red hull against blue water makes it a popular photo spot in Paphos.
The Edro III was a cargo ship registered in Sierra Leone. It ran aground on the rocks off the coast of Peyia during a storm in December 2011 and has never been removed. Its rust-red hull lies at a tilt in the clear sea. Visitors can view and photograph it from the limestone clifftop beside the shore, and the view is best at sunset with the light behind it. Tour boats from Paphos harbour also pass by. The wreck is near the sea caves, so the two can be visited together. Admission is free. There are no railings at the cliff edge, so take care. Do not climb on the hull or swim out to the ship.
