Itinerary
Clinging dramatically to Cyprus's rugged coastline, the legendary Edro III Shipwreck is one of the island's most iconic and mysterious landmarks. The weathered hull rising from the deep blue sea, framed by dramatic sea caves carved by centuries of waves — it's a scene that feels straight out of an adventure story. A must-see for history lovers and photography enthusiasts alike.
Set sail from Latchi and let the Blue Lagoon work its magic. As the boat glides through calm turquoise waters and fresh sea air fills your lungs, the views get more breathtaking with every turn. And when you finally arrive — diving into the crystal-clear, shallow waters of the Blue Lagoon Cyprus feels like the most natural thing in the world. Pure, effortless, unforgettable.
Welcome to Latchi — a charming fishing village where time slows down and the Mediterranean spirit comes alive. Colorful boats bob gently in crystal-clear waters, the scent of freshly grilled fish drifts through the air, and the laid-back coastal atmosphere invites you to simply breathe and enjoy. Take a stroll along the waterfront, grab a coffee, or browse the local shops — before boarding your boat to the legendary Blue Lagoon.
Nestled at the edge of the wild Akamas Peninsula, the legendary Baths of Aphrodite and the romantic Fountain of Love offer a cool, shaded retreat where mythology and nature meet in perfect harmony. Surrounded by coastal trails, fragrant wild herbs, and breathtaking sea views, this enchanting grotto is said to be where the goddess of love herself bathed in secret — while the Fountain of Love is believed to grant eternal youth to those who drink from its waters. A magical stop for legend seekers and nature lovers alike.

Absolutely magnificent tour, fantastic driver, fantastic host, very knowledgeable, fantastic value for money, highly recommend this trip
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the tour and found it such great value — and we'll be sure to pass your kind words on to your driver and host. Thanks for recommending us, and we'd love to welcome you back on board!
The tour offers pick up from various points along the route, we were lucky enough to be picked up at our hotel. As you get on the coach you're assigned a seat which is yours for the day, we were a 3 so were slightly split across the bus but not so far away that we couldn't chat if we needed to. The first stop was at the Edro III shipwreck and the banana plantation - a great spot to take some photos but we personally felt the time spent here was too long. We definitely didn't need a food/drink break that early in the journey. The journey to Latchi was very picturesque, up a fairly windy hillside and over towards the Akamas region. I'm not great with heights but did appreciate most of the views! Our next and main stop was for the boat trip. Once we got to Latchi, the coach driver parked up and we were taken onto the boat by Ester. There's three decks and an onboard bar - we stuck to the middle deck which gave us a good mix of cover and sunshine and there are great views pretty much wherever you sit. The journey to the Blue Lagoon is about 40 minutes so you can sit, chill and watch the world go by. I enjoy taking pictures so spent that time looking at the view. Once you arrive at the Blue Lagoon, the boat drops anchor away from the shore so you can jump in and swim. The slide was smaller than expected on our boat, probably more suitable for kids than adults although some on our trip used it as a posing opportunity! Most people however moved to the back of the boat and jumped straight in. Some felt it was too cold and got straight back out but others stayed in and swam to shore. I have fibromyalgia and struggle with certain movements so I was a bit reticent about jumping in as I was worried about climbing back out! Ultimately I decided I was only there once so my daughter and I jumped in together. I'm glad I did - the water was so clear and I loved our swim to shore. Once the horn sounded and everyone was back on board we headed back for Latchi. We chose not to eat at one of the bigger places and found a small cafe with seats by the marina along the front. We spent time then in the gift shops, getting our last minute presents. The strip itself from the car park is not that long - a few gift shops and restaurants but a nice gentle walk. I can't remember specifically but we had 60-90 minutes before the coach was due to leave. Our final stop was at the Baths of Aphrodite. To access it, you need to go through the gates of the botanical garden and it's a 5-10 minute walk (including steps for those who have mobility issues) to the area itself. As I said previously, I'm not great with heights so found the view from the paths a bit steep for my liking but I got there - another achievement for the day! This is one place we would have liked more time and I know others on our coach said the same. There were some lovely seating areas and trails to follow but apart from a couple of photo opportunities time was limited. Again, there are more eating places - a cafe, a restaurant and a shop - but there are also viewing points you can access to take pictures. Whilst I appreciate that people are in different types of accommodation, we were staying all-inclusive so felt that there we didn't need a food or drink opportunity at every stop and although the name of the restaurant in Latchi was not given as a recommendation, it was mentioned at a number of points throughout the day. Overall we enjoyed the tour. Our day was in a different order to that advertised when we booked (I did originally book a few months ago) and although it wasn't quite as planned it probably worked better for us. As mentioned in previous reviews, Ester was very knowledgeable and Teddy was a great driver.

We have just arrived back from the excursion to the shipwreck, the Blue Lagoon, harbour lunch and then Aphrodite's Baths. As a group of 5 adults and 1 child we all thoroughly enjoyed it! Lots of memories were made. Our guide Miriam(?) was exceptional and so was the driver! They were both so much fun. I highly recommend booking a trip with Eos Tours Cyprus directly as it was super easy and very efficient - communication was superb! Thank you 😀

The experience was really good, the guide was informative and very approachable, the only down side is , on Get your Guide it clearly states an 8 hr trip, it was 6 .5 hours from pick up to drop off, very disappointed after we were given 2 hours free time to eat and potter , another site to see would of wrapped the day of to perfection
Thank you for your review! We would like to clarify that this excursion is designed with relaxation in mind. After the boat trip, guests usually appreciate having time to rest and enjoy a leisurely lunch. After all, what could be better than having a meal or a cup of coffee by the sea? It’s all part of the full relaxation experience. You can also take a pleasant walk along the harbor in Latchi and enjoy the beautiful coastal views. You have experienced a complete and well-balanced tour. However, if you prefer to spend more time exploring local attractions and sightseeing, we would be happy to welcome you on one of our other excursions.
Really great day out, saw lots of cool sights and the boat trip was enjoyable too. Ester and Teddy Bear were class hosts and made the trip better by pointing out things to see and being generous with timings etc and keeping the spirits high.
Thank you so much for your kind review! 😊 We’re really happy to hear that you had such a great day, enjoyed the sights, and had a lovely time on the boat trip.

Thank you so much for your review! We’re delighted to hear that you had a relaxed and enjoyable day, and that Ester made it even better. We would be thrilled to welcome you again and create even more wonderful experiences!
I was a big fan of Ester, the tour leading guide. She recommended a restaurant with delicious food, Restomare. I had hoped for more snorkling time, but it was a good experience nonetheless.
Thank you so much for your review and your kind words about Ester! We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed the day and the restaurant Restomare. We understand your wish to have more time for snorkeling. Unfortunately, the time spent in the Blue Lagoon is limited in order to preserve the natural ecosystem of this unique place. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope to see you again on our tours soon! 💙
An amazing experience, the tour guide Esther was lovely and a very informative guide, could have been in better hands to have a good time!

♿🦿We booked through Poseidonos travel via WhatsApp! The lady in the office assured us it was suitable for a llbk amputee and my scooter would not be an issue (that was her only truth)! I'm not going into great detail let's just say if you do book the trip book with someone else! She didn't even get the pick time correct!! Ester our tour guild was amazing and a credit to the company any issues I had she quickly resolved ensuring my day was the best it could be, and it was a great day we ate were she advised which was lovely the boat trip was really nice I watched everyone swimming in the beautiful glass water for an hour. And then the boat took us back to shore. Thank you Ester oh and her knowledge of the island is also impeccable x
Hello! Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused by the agent’s incorrect actions. As a tour operator, we take accessibility very seriously and strive to ensure the maximum comfort for all our guests. We would like to clarify that travel agents, such as Poseidonos Travel, sell tours on behalf of tour operators, and unfortunately, the agent did not inform us about your condition. In such cases, it would have been better to raise any concerns directly with the agent. Nevertheless, our staff member Ester did everything possible to make your day as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. We recommend asking the travel agent who the tour operator of the excursion is, and if you have any special requests or questions, it’s best to contact the tour operator directly to clarify all the details. Thank you for your review and your kind words about our guide! Best regards,
