Quality Tourist Facilities in Cyprus




Paphos is probably the area of Cyprus with more tradition in what we call Quality Tourism, a term I hate using since there is not such a thing as Quality Barometer. Tourism is an activity that obtains quality when the end user obtains an experience that gives him or her personal satisfaction, so there is no way to measure this.

Nevertheless there are certain very basic things such as cleanliness, friendliness and other that are Good Experience Factors.

Today, Sunday 21st of June I took some time with my family to visit the free north part of Cyprus, the area of Polis in Paphos district. Probably still the most virgin tourist destination in Cyprus with spectacular views and quiet beaches.

After our bath in Pomos, a small village 15 kms from Polis, we stopped at the Camping Site of the Cyprus Tourism Organisation to have a last swim there and an ice-cream with the kids.
And it then where I fully understood the term of Quality Tourism Facilities. The pictures were taken today. Enjoy the view and I strongly recommend you visit the place. Honestly if those incometent people were not running the place then you would be in the one of the most spectacular sceneries in the Mediterranean. In Greek we have a saying.. “ Τοπος είναι ο ανθρωπος” meaning “how good a place is is how its people is”.
