Argaka

Argaka is located to the nearby resorts of Polis & Latchi. Argaka lies at the foot of the Paphos forest and it enjoys both sea and mountain views and an excellent climate. It is only a short drive to secluded beaches. There are coffee shops and a couple of tavernas in the village and it is only 2km from Polis and its famous beaches.

Argaka has two churches, Ayia Varvara being the oldest, whilst Ayia Marina has three including a very old Byzantine church in the forest about 1 mile away. In the area there are several dams where fishing (under licence) may be possible. This part of the island is very fertile and has an abundance of fruit trees including figs, grapes, prickly pears, apples, oranges and lemons.

Almost every weekend there is a wedding in the area and visitors are always welcome to join the festivities. Being rural, early morning walks are particularly enjoyable. There are some extensive, good beaches in the area.
