Summer Camp Paphos, Cyprus
A Day by the Beach & Night by the Stars
This morning when the language students were off to their lessons, two of the Adventure groups visited the scenic Baths of Aphrodite and enjoyed a 2.5kms hike in the Akamas National Park, known as Aphrodite's Trail. Through the hike they had the chance to observe some of Cyprus' typical flora and enjoy amazing views of mountains on the one side and of the coastline on the other! At the same time the rest of the Adventure campers went snorkelling at a rocky bay; they swam to a nearby tiny island and took cool photos while standing on rocks kind of in the middle of the sea. In the afternoon, it was the turn of the language students to head to the beach for the much-anticipated Banana Boat ride. They truly had a blast on and off the Banana boat, while we also organized various beach games, canoeing and stand-up paddling, such special moments shared with new friends from around the world will stay deep in everyone's memories for a very long time! .
Late in the afternoon, the entire camp took off from the hotel for an evening hike towards the climbing range that we typically use. When we reached the site, we had burgers for dinner and watched the breathtaking sunset at the most western point of Cyprus and from an altitude of about 700 meters looking down towards Lara Bay also known as the Turtle Beach. Campers and staff were impressed both by the sunset and by the fascinating constellations lesson given by Michael. Because we were at the beginning of the national park without many lights around us, we could see the stars a lot more clearly and brighter compared to other times. To wrap the evening-up, we had campfire where we melted marshmallows and ate them in biscuit sandwiches while a few of the staff and kids told ghost stories that certainly spooked the rest of us out. After another long and exciting day the campers went to rest motivated to get up in the morning and continue with the amazing fun and adventure at Village Camps Cyprus!
