One thing that is important to remember is that on this side of the island in December January and February the Sun disappears behind the mountains so you don’t get the evening sunsets as you can only see the sunset from the other side of the island. The harbour area is modern beautiful statue and lots of boats. You can walk along the beach for some distance lucky had the oldest of Villas. Latchi has a different bus to Paphos in that it seems to attract the older British crowd whilst we were there in January 2021 this was at the height of the pandemic and now hardly any tourists. There is a great bakery nearby in Polisand there are a couple of supermarkets, restaurants and shops in Latchi itself.

Latchi not long after Lockdown was quiet and peaceful with the shoreline being disturbed only by the gentleness of the waves. A few souls dotted the beach with the ever watchful Lifeguard doing his duty. Plenty of Sunbeds and Parasols available as are Watersports. Nearby Taverns, Coffee Shops and Restaurants keep you well supplied with sustenance and a good day is had by all.

The beach cannot compare to the beaches of the south east for beauty, but if you prefer to have plenty of space and a wilder, natural vibe then Latchi beach is great. We stayed in Latchi and preferred our pool during the day and drove to Coral Bay once, but we really enjoyed walking here in the evenings, sitting in the nice bars and restaurants on the front, enjoying the sunset, while the kids played on the beach. Loved the mountains on both sides as well. We divided our two week holiday between Pernera and Latchi and felt we had the best of both worlds doing it this way.
