About
Pafos Watersports start their activities back in 1979. They were located in front of the first hotel which was built in Paphos by the name “Paphos Beach Hotel” (current Almyra Hotel). Through the years not only the love and the devotion of the owner to his business but also the love and the interest the customers showed allowed Pafos Watersports to grow and expand. Today is the largest business of water sports and boat trips in Cyprus. It consists of highly qualified staff, the latest equipment as well as comfortable facilities that offer easy access to boats and into the sea. The good service, the good prices, the friendly environment, the hospitality and the interest of Pafos Watersports for their customers are the main reasons that keep us up at a high level making us the best around Cyprus. Where the land ends…the fun begins!!!

We booked a 3 hour trip for my wife and me.
We arrived at 11am and were greeted like long lost family.
It’s was clear that they had listened to everything we had chatted about at the time of booking. We departed for Coral Bay, where we swam and sunbathed and then the lunch and drinks appeared.... a vegetarian salad for my wife and a lamb and rice dish for me, utterly delicious. This was accompanied by a very dry, delicious white Cypriot wine, followed by a local beer.
So friendly, our skipper, Jethro, looked after us extremely well and shared his love of the coastline.
The perfect trip and we cannot recommend highly enough.

A group of my friends and myself visit pafos watersports twice in during our visit to paphos and they was fantastic. We tried the crazy ride, parasailing and the jet skis. The jet skis were brilliant and were well maintained. Our whole group had a great experience on them. The parasailing was amazing. The crew did a great job to calm a rather terrified member of our group. The views while up there where amazing. It was so clam and peaceful. On the contrary, the crazy ride was one of the best experiences I have ever had. Being dragged on an inflatable by a speed boat over waves was just so much fun. The crew deserve all the merit. Definitely worth a visit if you have a chance.

I am so pleased we discovered here on day 2 of our holiday because it meant we could go back again and again. We thoroughly enjoyed the jet bikes, sea bobs (big hit!), canoes, sea view board and the pedalo with the slide. The area is perfect, in a small lagoon area which is crystal clear and perfectly safe. Then you can go out in the open sea if you wish.
We have a active teenage son who rated this as the best thing he has ever done - it was an absolute joy to hear him scream things like this is awesome, I feel brilliant !
I, on the other hand, am a middle aged, overweight lady but love being active. The team here were marvellous and I didn’t feel embarrassed at all with my awkward way in and out of the canoes. Honestly this meant so much as it could have been an awful experience for me but instead I felt great and confident. So Thankyou very much guys for that.
The pedalo with a slide was a brilliant family thing to do. The sea boards! Give them a go! So relaxing g and you can see everything.
The area you wait in is perfect. Your belongings are safe with the staff and it’s a great atmosphere.
We were disappointed on the last day that we were unable to have our last sea Bob but we were offered a complimentary jet bike instead. What more could you ask for?!
Thank you so much for making this a holiday to remember. We would come back to Pafos for this alone!

We booked the Sea Cave, Wreck and Snorkelling for 7 family members at 50 euros each.
We shared a boat with a few other couples and a family. It was around a hour boat ride our, via the coastline and a wreck. It was noisy, bumpy and not terribly exciting, and if you do suffer from sea sickness then be wary.
We stopped for snorkelling and a drink, which was provided ( small cans or cup of water ). Snorkel equipment was provided which was good. My wife used a life vest but said there wasn’t enough of them for everybody which was disconcerting should there have been a problem.
Snorkelling was ok, not lots of sea activity just lots of sand and weed.
Then we headed back. The ride back was shorter and slightly smoother.
Overall it was what I expected BUT I would say expensive for what it was ( maybe 35 euros is more reasonable ) and the fact we only had one staff member on board and allegedly not enough life vests, that was a little worrying. But we all got back ok :)

Best water sports location in Paphos! Perfectly situated on the beach and easily accessible via the hotel, this little gem is a busy hub for water enthusiasts, friends, children, families and couples alike. With something for everyone and a vast array of options you are spilt for choice! This experience was the first with young children (7 & 10) so we were naturally apprehensive, however we were soon reassured by the friendly staff and qualified instructors who gave us confidence in safety and made my kids feel at ease. We got a package deal and indulged in parasailing, crazy ride, speed boat ride, and jet ski’s and you can’t help but go back for more! The whole experience from start to finish is professional and very well organised so look no further if you want top quality service and fun! The manager Fanos and his team are second to none and made our holiday! We can’t wait to visit again! A big thank you to the king of the Ocean!

Our third year in coming here for all our watersports, and from the first visit it was clear that every member of the team wants to go the extra mile for their customers, they make you feel like family, you want to come back! From the warm welcome at their information desk, their flexibility to build packages around your timetable and requirements, and competitiveness in ensuring you get good value for money..... it all starts very reassuringly. Just a short walk down their floating pontoon that opens out to an area that includes sunbeds, showers and toilets for all their guests, and where all their array of modern, well maintained equipment can be accessed..... parasailing (so relaxing and the team cater for every age and level of nerves to make it so enjoyable), 8 modern jetskis (by my count) where a brief but thorough introduction ensures a safe yet extreme adrenaline rush, Seabobs (look great fun, and still on my to do list) and an array of speedboats from small mini Gin Palace! Over the years my sons and I have been taught water-skiing and wakeboarding, and the patience and skillful tuition of Avraam has been fantastic, he clearly wants you to get better with each pull, and we has been great to see my sons progress from initial pulls behind a jet ski in the calm waters around the pontoon, to mono-ski and wakeboard tricks in the beautiful Paphos bay. Been back a few days, and have 3 weeks of watersports ahead, but after a just a few days of excellent service, having seen the investment the owner makes to continue to offer the best of everything, they deserve another review as we embark on another few weeks of fun in the sun 👍😁

We had an excellent experience. During our stay at a nearby hotel, we decided to walk over and try some of the water sports activities. We opted for the "Crazy Ride" and parasailing. The "Crazy Ride" was thrilling—intense and exhilarating, leaving us with a bit of soreness the next day, but it was absolutely worth it and reasonably priced.
Parasailing was another highlight. Although the moments leading up to takeoff were a bit hectic, once we were in the air, it was incredibly peaceful and relaxing, offering breathtaking views. The staff was professional and friendly, ensuring we felt safe at all times, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend trying out these activities.

Very impressed with the service, professionalism and safety. Prices are very reasonable and you get a decent amount of time on the activities. My husband and son booked the parasailing and my daughter and I were able to travel on the boat with them, which was an unexpected bonus. Life jackets etc. Very safe. Returned the following day to try a pedalo. Again all very professional, safe and friendly. We were shown somewhere to leave our bags and shoes etc. We’re going back later to hire a jet-ski!
Amazing service. You won’t regret coming here.

A great experience with Pafos water sports would highly recommend the half day excursion along the coast. We had a great captain Jethro nothing was too much trouble very polite, knowledgable and firendly. A great way to spend half a day seeing the island from the sea.
Lunch and drinks were provided along with Snorkel and Flippers, we made it into the cold sea for a swim around coral bay. Well worth paying the extra to have a private personable experience.
Thanks Avram & Jethro (Jet!)

My friend has a wish to swim with Turtles and we are currently looking at places to visit where this is possible. Not so much just being able to watch but having experience of being in the water with them. I have looked at excursion pages but there are none that include this as an option. If you do the swimming experience please can you provide more details... dates etc when this would be available to us as an option for when we visit Paphos. Do you have an online brochure? Kind regards, Ms J Bailey
