It is difficult to do
justice to Pissouri in a few words, it has a unique character and
attractiveness to the visitor, holiday maker or somebody considering
retiring here. the Cypriot character has been retained and it is still
very much a working village of farmers. |
| Its very Cypriot character is what attracts
the visitor, holiday maker and expatriate residents. Fortunately this is
recognised by many of those in the village.
From time to time fears are
expressed that too rapid development will see another Agia Napa spring up
from the vineyards of Pissouri and be built here - but this will not
happen - at least for many decades. The character of the beach resort and
the village is assured. |
 |
The motorway has brought Pissouri closer to the larger cities and
resorts of Limassol and Paphos, but the distinctiveness of the area is
likely to be retained.
 |
The Pissouri area is famous for growing grapes, mainly
in the valley between the main roads and the sea that leads to Pissouri
Beach. there are some particularly good local wines (including a stunning
organic, dry white) to be sampled in a taverna or at home in your villa. |
Pissouri is about a 30 minute drive away from either
Paphos (Pafos) or Limassol (Lemesos) for those who want to see more urban
life than Pissouri can offer.
