About Pissouri

Set high on the Cape Aspro Ridge, Pissouri is a charming Cypriot village. Far from the crowds who flock to Limassol and Paphos in the summer months, this seaside escape promises a wonderful slice of authentic island life. Whether you’re dreaming of a romantic holiday or a fun-filled family trip, our pick of the best places to stay in Pissouri is seriously special.

Explore old Pissouri on foot, sampling attractive cafés, pizzerias and tavernas. Residents congregate in the village square in the early evening, and there’s often music and dancing in street-side bars at night. The amphitheatre promises an excellent programme of performances; do check out what's on whilst you're in town. A couple of kilometres away, Pissouri beach is a Blue Flag favourite, with elements of both sand and shingle, and activities including water skiing, shipwreck diving, sailing and boat hire. Those seeking seclusion can hide away on the area’s secret beach — perfect for sunbathing with a good book.

Beyond the coast, you’ll find beautiful landscapes. Pissouri is surrounded by farmland, with verdant vineyards and citrus orchards in sight of snowcapped Mount Olympus. Active travellers will adore following walking and cycling trails, or enjoying vineyard tours and tastings.
