Polis Camping Site in Cyprus

Quote of the Post: "Camping is the art of campers which connects to the nature as tight-bounded and offers natural home." - Quote about Camping - Sachin Kumar Gupta

If you came across this site by searching "Camping in Cyprus", "Camping in Polis" or something similar, then go ahead. Summer has been started. Its another great time in Cyprus. After a long period we finally executed our Camping script. We coded the script very quickly (Friday during lunch) and executed the next day, and the outcome was successfull and pleasant. The site is the best kept secret of cyprus - Polis Chrysochous camping site.



What things to bring with you for the Polis camping site to enjoy it to the fullest:
1. The first and formost thing is Camping tents or canvas.
2. Barbeque Stand and Stuff, Koyla(Coal or charcoal), and dry sticks.
3. Small music system; If you are a dance freak. Antakshari(Singing songs) is always on top of Indian checklist during such events.
4. Swimming stuff, Sun screen, and other, as the beach is on the next door.
5. Cooking and Drinking stuff as some snacks, beverage, fruits, and food to cook.
6. Night Lamps, Torch or some light for night. We preferred the mashaals. To give proper camping look - as we got these from Carrefour mall, the biggest advantage was 0.50 Euros per mashaal(Torch), and one bottle of mashaal oil.
7. Blanket and quilt, during the night as It gets bit cold. Bring the string to dry the wet clothes.
8. Folding Chairs and table and other personal stuff.
9. Playing Cards ;If your group is intrested in it. Our group is always ready to shuffle. :-)
10.Beach Vollyball, as the beach vollyball court is nearby. or Badminton net and stuff.
Last but not the least, Put all the rubbish into the nearby dustbin. (Go greener, and let the place clean for the others. Although people do the place clean by default here)

Polis is in one of the most beautiful areas of Cyprus, near romantic sites, close to the place where Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty, used to meet her beloved Adonis, near the Akamas Peninsula with its famous Baths of Aphrodite. Polis offers plenty of natural and combine beauty of sea, mountain and plain. Polis is just 45 min drive from Pafos International Airport, 2 hrs from Larnaka airport and approx 2 hrs from Limassol.
