&Only 4 hours from Paris, d& ;discover a blue lagoon worthy of the Caribbean where temperatures still reach 25°C in October!
Imagine a place where the sun still shines brightly in October and November, just a few hours' flight from the grey French skies. This destination, increasingly popular with French travellers, is full of breathtaking natural treasures. Among them, a lagoon with turquoise waters that is the dream of photographers, divers and tourists looking for an escape.
With average temperatures of 26°C in October and water at 24°C, this island is the ideal Mediterranean destination to extend the summer. Far from the summer crowds, the months of October and November are perfect for enjoying the island in a more peaceful atmosphere. The sunny days invite you to relax on the fine sandy beaches or at exploring the island's cultural riches.
It is near Paphos, a city located in the southwest of Cyprus, that the jewel of the island is nestled: the Blue Lagoon. This vast pool of calm, clear, turquoise water is accessible only by boat, which allows it to remain sheltered from the crowds. Visitors describe this place as “unmissable” and “majestic”, praising its breathtaking beauty whatever the season.
Paphos is also full of other wonders, such as the famous Roman ruins of the Villas of Dionysus, Orpheus and Aion, or the picturesque old town. Not far from there, the beach of Petra tou Romiou, also called Aphrodite's Rock, is worth a visit. According to legend, it was here that the Greek goddess of love and beauty was born from the foam. A café overlooking the beach offers breathtaking views, particularly appreciated at sunset.
The Blue Lagoon is undoubtedly one of the most iconic and breathtaking sites in Cyprus. Its crystal-clear waters come in a range of shimmering blues, from turquoise to sapphire. The sandy bottom dotted with seagrass beds, rocks and sponges makes it an ideal spot to learn to dive and perfect your technique. Observe the small fish that flit between the rocks of the bay, while the larger specimens evolve offshore.
There is no doubt that the Blue Lagoon will keep its promises by taking you for a few hours in a landscape worthy of the Caribbean. If you decide to visit Paphos in the fall, it is the guarantee of calm and pleasant visits. The only imperative is to book your accommodation in advance because the offer will be more limited than in the middle of summer.
