It is set in a scenic valley surrounded by mature trees and beautiful natural rock formations. Consistently appearing as the preferred course amongst the island's visiting players in terms of sheer playability and enjoyment.

Aphrodite Hill

The recently opened Aphrodite Hills sits on cliffs above the beach where the goddess after whom it's named reputedly emerged from the sea. Surrounded by protected forest, the course is cut in two by a dramatic deep ravine, which must be carried on several tee shots. Aphrodite Hills has been built as part of a multi-million-pound resort aimed at putting Cyprus firmly on the international golf circuit and is going to be a big crowd-puller, so we suggest you get there fast before the crowds arrive.

Secret Valley

Secret Valley, as the name suggests, is set in a valley and is surrounded by beautiful natural rock. It has an excellent layout on well-maintained fairways and, although it's only a few years old, the ample vegetation gives it the feel of a well-established course. The fairways are well separated so we often got the feeling of being almost alone when we played here. We also enjoyed the warm wind that wafts gently down from the neighbouring hills.

Tsada Golf Club

Tsada Golf Club is the oldest course in Cyprus and has a sort of rustic feel to it, with fairways that are more natural than manicured running through fruit orchards and vineyards. It's a pleasant course where accuracy is more important than length - though the sloping fairways mean you'll play precious few shots off a flat surface. Set 500m above sea level, there are lovely views of the coastline and Paphos town. An enjoyable course for high and low handicappers alike.
