More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Morning light hits the scrubby slopes of Akamas and the jeep’s engine rumbles as you peel away from the coastal road — the peninsula opens up like a map of limestone and sea. You’ll feel the wind push you toward hidden coves: the Blue Lagoon’s turquoise cheek daring you to strip down and swim, limestone walls in Avakas Gorge leaning in as if to listen, and the Adonis Baths pooling cool and bright beneath the trees.
