At Paradise Park Farm you can watch a small collection of native and non-native creatures that live up in the beautiful mountains. There are various types of birds, miniature rabbits, guinea pigs and a little hedgehog. As the name suggests, this is a farm and not a zoo, and the animals seem to be happy and healthy. This is a great place for children and adults alike.

Perched on a hillside with panoramic views of the sea, Peyia is most famous for its scenic village square. Here, the village's time-honoured fountains still stand — once gathering spots for women to wash clothes and collect water. Further down, Coral Bay offers one of the finest sandy stretches in the Paphos region, annually awarded a Blue Flag for its excellent water quality. For a cultural detour, visit the Agios Georgios Church. Inside, you'll discover a 6th-century basilica complex that boasts rare geometric and animal floor mosaics — a unique find in Christian art. History buffs should also make time for Maa-Paleokastro, the Bronze Age landing spot of the Mycenaean Greeks, situated on a nearby peninsula.

Nearby Arauzona there is still a natural catchment, coved in Roman times, which domestic people today call Roman cistern and which served for the water supply of the local inhabitants, while the livestock watered in a puddle in the field, north of the settlement.
