Fodor's Expert Review Akamas National Park

Akamas National Park is a 230 square kilometer peninsula on the western tip of Cyprus. Diverse in its landscape, it is one of the most beautiful areas of the island with deep gorges, wide sandy bays, and hidden coves. Protected from development, the nature reserve has unique flora and fauna endemic to the region. Using Polis as a gateway, regular boat trips leave from the harbor at Latchi, 4x4 vehicles and quads are readily available to rent, but perhaps the most rewarding way to travel across the park is to hike or cycle the numerous paths that criss-cross the reserve.
