    Coral Bay - Fab beach, I went for a day when I went to see my family, its a bit more commercial now but still the nicest beach on the island

    Go to the Harbour at night - its just soooo nice and chilled

    For restaurants - I recommend Zorbas on Kings road ( Garlic Steak mmmm)

    You can go into old pafos town where it is mainly locals with the market and local shops

    Where are you staying?

    Is that where youve just been on your holiday Zoe?

    That garlic steak sounds good - Im UP FOR THE CHALLENGE!!

    We've got an apartment we found over the internet owned by some guy in the UK .... it was coming to the end of the season so he gave us a really good discount for wanting to stay there. Ill have to find out from the lass where it is tho. Sleeps 6 or something so if anyone wants a last minute holiday let me know :D

    I went to Protoras on the other side of the island but my family are in Pafos so I went there for a few days to see them too.

    My dad has just bought another apartment over there so we went and sorted that out. Would be canny funny if its my dad's apartment your staying in :lol:

    Go on a day trip to Aphrodities rock aswell. Theres so much to do honestly, I was with the little one see we done the normal stuff, Beach etc. The waterpark is also good fun if you like that kind of thing, although you are canny owld so you wont be interested in that :p

    :lol: @ Mick, I didnt have to eat the steak for the waiter to dance :p

    LOL - Im DEFINATELY going to the water park now to utterly disprove your old comment! ;)

    Ahhh thats quite a co-incidence ending up going to the same place more or less so recently! .... Definately sounds like theres more to do than i first thought.

    ... I definately need a holiday - Ive had no less than 5 jobs this year!

    I have family in cyprus and fly there quite often. you never seem to get much below £250 from newcastle and some of the flight times are horrific. I did see one from manchester the other day for £49 one way tho
