Most visitors travel Paphos to experience the wealth of history and culture on display, and to enjoy the tranquil and beautiful countryside that the west coast of the island offers.
But Paphos is not just for history lovers.
Many people are unaware of the great facilities that are also available to families in the area.
Here are the top 3 family attractions in Paphos: 1) Kid's Kingdom: Kid's Kingdom is a large indoor play area for children aged 2-17.
There is lots to do for all ages, and one of the main highlights is the dodgem cars! Parents are welcome to stick around if they wish, there is a bar and a restaurant for them to relax in.
2) Aphrodite Waterpark: Although Ayia Napa's Waterworld usually steals all the fame when it comes to waterparks in Cyprus, Aphrodite Waterpark is also worth a visit! As well as some fantastic rides like the Black Hole, it is also the only waterpark on the island to offer scuba diving tuition.
The lessons are available for all levels.
3) Paphos Bird Park: Animal attractions are always great days out for all the family and the Bird Park, located a short drive away from Coral Bay, is no exception! A huge variety of birds is on display, and you can see some of them close up during the bird shows held several times a day.
Despite the name of the park you can also discover several other animals here, for example at the park's reptile house! These are just a few ways that you can enjoy a family holiday in Cyprus, but the island is bursting full of attractions for people of all ages.
For example, if your family are the adventurous type you might want to try go-karting in Larnaca or paragliding at Kourion or at St Hilarion.
