Join a small group of nature conservation enthusiasts for a full-day mission to Cyprus’ north-western tip, the wild Akamas Peninsula. Combining fun, adventure and some (optional) calorie-burning through short walks and swimming opportunities, our itinerary stresses ‘time outside in Nature’ rather than being trapped inside a jeep for the whole day. During the day, we stay inside the boundaries of the proposed Akamas National Park and visit some of Cyprus’ most remote yet dazzling natural monuments: 

Unique wave-cut rock formations with natural archways and underwater caves;

The ‘sacred sands’ of Lara, site of the world famous turtle conservation project;

Giant limestone gorges and goat-filled plateaux;

The AKAMAS EXPEDITION

Available from:  PAPHOS , POLIS, LIMASSOL, AYIA NAPA, PROTARAS & LARNACA

The Akamas Forest, with its dense stands of pine and juniper and numerous volcanic peaks;

Deserted beaches and rocky coves with brilliantly turquoise waters.

Known for its vast array of wild flowers in springtime and the

unparalleled swimming/hiking possibilities during summer/autumn months, the Akamas is an environmental wonderland not to be missed.

Each expedition includes a very memorable lunch at a small

village taverna featuring a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian

specialities not found in tourist restaurants. We eat what the local farmers eat! Sorry, no chips!  Drinking water is provided throughout the day gratis.

Suggested: Wear appropriate footwear – trainers or better. Bring your bathing suit.
