Baths of Aphrodite
This beauty spot is situated past the fishing harbour of Latsi towards the tip of the Akamas peninsula. A natural pool grotto surrounded in greenery, the site lies at the end of a small nature trail. As its name suggests, the grotto is said to be where the Goddess of Love used to bathe. Myth also has it that this is where Aphrodite met her lover, the handsome Adonis, when he stopped off for a drink while hunting. The moment he drank the water, Adonis fell in love with the goddess.
We spent a happy few hours here, winding through the nature trail and enjoying the wildlife and varied vegetation. The Baths itself were very tranquil, a beautiful relaxing spot to visit, seeped in history and local folk lore.

The Baths of Aphrodite _ Akamas, Cyprus
The northwestern peninsula of Cyprus, is known as Akamas. It is a wild uninhabited region with spectacular landscapes and beaches. The Baths of Aphrodite is an area in the Akamas. It derived its name from a small grotto shaded by an old fig tree. In the waters of this grotto, legend has it, the goddess Aphrodite used to bathe. According to mythology, this is where she met her lover Adonis.
Η βορειοδυτική χερσόνησος της Κύπρου, είναι γνωστή ως Ακάμας. Είναι μια άγρια ακατοίκητη περιοχή με εκπληκτικά τοπία και παραλίες. Πήραν το όνομά τους από μια μικρή σπηλιά πίσω από μια παλιά συκιά. Σ’ αυτά τα νερά σύμφωνα με το θρύλο, η θεά Αφροδίτη συνήθιζε να λούζεται. Σύμφωνα με τη μυθολογία, εδώ συναντούσε τον αγαπημένο της Άδωνι.

Lempa and the Baths of Aphrodite in Cyprus
The movie begins with a shot of the Chalcolithic settlement of Lempa, just north of Paphos in Cyprus, which dates from 3,500 to 2,500 B.C. Figurines of pregnant women found in the remains of these round huts suggest that worship of a fertility goddess pre-dated the establishment of the cult of Aphrodite further east, as at PalaeoPaphos at Kouklia. Many tourists, travelling across country from Paphos to the north coast of the Akamas Peninsula, a protected nature area, go to view the springs overlooking Chrysohou Bay, popularly known as the Baths of Aphrodite. On the path, you can see wild Spring flowers and smell and see the jasmine bordering the path to the springs. A wild fig tree grows out of the rocks above the pool. Legend has it that women bathing in the pool can rejuvenate themselves although the rules say No! The video concludes with a panorama of Chrysohou Bay taken from the restaurant on the cliffside run by the Cyprus Tourist Organisation. Very good food too.

Baths of Aphrodite - Akamas Peninsula/Cyprus - 15th of Dec. 2011
Halbinsel Akamas im Nordwesten von Zypern. Nahe Polis/Latchi liegt die Quelle in einer kleinen Höhle, wo die Liebesgöttin Aphrodite gerne gebadet- und Adonis getroffen haben soll. Von hier aus führt ein Aphrodite-Pfad und ein Adonis-Pfad nach oben, der Adonispfad ist ein Rundweg und etwas länger. Eine wahrlich arkadische Landschaft mit wilden Orchideen, die Mitte Dezember gerade geblüht haben, Veilchen u. v. m... wunderschöne Ausblicke hat man auf die felsigen Buchten, auf die (Kieselstein-) Buchten von Latsi und Polis und weiter in Richtung türkischer Teil Zyperns. Auch die Bergziegen, mit Glöckchen um den Hals und Schafe, die die schmalen Fußwege kreuzen, lassen einen innehalten und ausschauen und es ist eine wunderbare Ruhe und ich hatte ein seltsam schönes Gefühl von Freiheit, alleine schon durch die Möglichkeit, jederzeit vom Weg ab über Stock und Stein wie die Ziegen zu laufen, wie es mir gefällt oder ohne Zeitdruck zu rasten unter halb abgebrochenen Felsvorsprüngen als Schattenspender...mal einfach querbeet gehen können, ohne apodiktische Wegweiser beachten zu müssen...doch auch ohne Gefahr, sich tatsächlich zu verlaufen...
Akamas Peninsula / Cyprus (natural fountain, where Aphrodite, the goddess of love met Adonis). It is a small shaded pool within a cave...
From here you can walk on two pathways, the path of Aphrodite and the roundabout path of Adonis. On the way there are wild orchidaceus (December they are in flower), african violets a.s.o..and.there are crossing your footpath a lot of sheeps, mountain goats with bells...you get beautiful views towards Latchi, Polis and the turkish part of Cyprus... a wonderful idyllic scene, you feel to be in an arcadian landscape
