The village of Chlorakas is one of the biggest villages in the area, close Paphos old town, Tombs of the Kings and Kato Paphos harbour area. It is spread over a large area and 2 distinct sides. The upper part is where many traditional and modern shops, restaurants, bars and amenities are located, the lower part is much more residential, peaceful and serene with the beach close by and many large luxurious villas scattered throughout. The coastline is peppered with luxurious hotels and there are many restaurants to choose from.
A marooned shipwreck provides an interesting landmark in this area and when walking along the beach at dusk, the sun can sometimes set directly behind the shipwreck creating a very dramatic scene which would not be out of place in a Hollywood movie.
The tourist areas of both Paphos and Coral Bay are about 5-10 minutes away by car (or frequent bus service) in either direction, the latter having the beautiful Coral Bay Beach, a beach suitable for all the family as well as a diverse range of bars, restaurants and cafes to suit all tastes.
