My latest discovery and I have to say, one of the coolest places on the island. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first time I heard about Grape by the Sea (location here<\/a>) was here<\/a> and in the Lonely Planet book. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having run out of places to take my guests too, I thought this warranted for a proper road trip, something that is almost unheard of in my last few years on the island. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cyprus is not a huge island and in my 6 years of explorations, I’ve seen quite a bit. It was a breath of fresh air to have a sense of discovery and joy when you thought you’ve seen it all already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you fancy a trip here, I have to warn you – it’s quite a trek. I took us close to 2hrs from Peyia\/Coral Bay area. Best is if you book it as a whole day road trip<\/a> and see something on the way, or book the night in Kato Pyrgos and continue exploring the next day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The drive from Polis towards Pomos and Kato Pyrgos <\/a>area is one of the prettiest I experienced on the island. Stunning sea views all along the road, with dramatic drops and picturesque stops along the way. Best savoured in good company & cold drink in hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grape by the Sea is at the edge of the village, with clear signs off the main road. We arrived mid-April only to find a handful of other guests and plenty of space for ourselves to enjoy the view. We ordered a village salad for two and a platter to share. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The salad was hands down the best I’ve had in years and same goes for the board. The freshest cheese, veggies & super delicious olives. All flushed down with a glass of local wine, while enjoying the view of the Turkish mountain peaks hiding behind the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can only imagine what sunsets look like in a place like this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a bit of a shortage of photos this time as I was freezing my … off (I’m usually cold even in the heat of Cypriot summer), so I was glued to my chair, holding on tight to my sweater. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any case, if you venture here please let me know if you liked it as much as I did! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
