I stayed in protaras (golden star hotel) they had their own pub opposite called rising sun and spent many a night in there, let's say a long time ago, Before that "we" had read about fig tree bay being accessed via an orange tree? grove etc. what a shock it was to find out it was all hotels and car park, my idyllic dream of a field covered with fruit trees was shattered forever 😥. On the upside that part of the coast has a beautiful beach that you can walk right out and the sea only covers your ankles/bottom half legs, in summer you can walk out to the island rock formation, occasionally I will have a day out drive over when in Cyprus from Paphos. IF I remember correctly @ 20:20 left turn, on the right side there used to be an old aircraft fuselage made into a Caffe but that went many many years ago.......my rambling on is over 😂😂. Thanks Dominic for the reminder of what I'm missing 😥😂
@@PabloConcrete 🤣 well this is a question I never expected. To be honest it was a very long time ago, around 40 years. It could possibly be of tourist information of the time but not sure although if you Google it,..... history of the area I'm sure it must pop up......I might even do that myself 🤔😂
Looking forward to landing in Paphos tomorrow , and get nice and warm 😊😊😊
Have fun!
I enjoyed that thank-you 🇨🇾💕
Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Hi Neil! Where did you read about old days and orange trees in Fig Tree Bay? Would love to read it all myself! Thank you!
