We did the Blue Lagoon tour - Socrates was our driver and tour guide.
We were picked up from our hotel, driven for almost 2 hours to the Latchi port where we took a 40 min boat ride to the Blue Lagoon. The boat held about 100 people and was clean and relaxing, with snacks - only complaint from my teens was that it didn’t have a great slide which the other boats we saw did.
The blue lagoon is beautiful but very crowded - people from two other ships were there at the same time. But it was still fun - crystal waters, some fish to see for snorkeling. We really enjoyed it.
But the best part of the day was after lunch at the Bath of Aphrodite Restaurant which had the most incredible view of the cove below. Down approx 100 steps we went swimming in the water and it was so so beautiful! Clean, shallow and the perfect temperature, we didn’t want to leave.
A quick 5 minute walk away, we went to the Bath of Aphrodite’s (pretty and nice to visit bur not that exciting) and then onto Aphrodite’s birthplace - a formation of rocks and again, the most beautiful cove and waters that we loved swimming in.
Our guide was great - he told us a lot about the history of the island and the long lasting effects of the war of 74 and Turkish colonisation of the Northern part of the island, which we didn’t know about!
It was an amazing day, one to remember, would highly recommend! We all loved it.
