Quick Outing. Well worth it.
Wasn't sure what to expect from our visit here, but really worth it. I'd highly recommend visiting. Payment on entrance is easy, cheap and can use card. The facilities are good and the paths all decent. The ruins will blow you away. Make sure you walk over to the public baths. You need coins to buy water from machine and we got bitten whilst visiting so remember bug sprey.

Brilliant
Went here by chance. Didn't realise, because I didn't see any notice, that over 65s are free. Easy to park and good toilet facilities. The park is superb. The paths are very well laid out and the ruins are stunning. There is a lot to do. One small criticism is that, as some of the mosaics are covered for protection, it would be useful to have pictures by them to show what they look like. Another plus is great views over the bay.

Well worth a visit
I have to confess we were confused at first because Google maps took as to Kourion beach and announced we had reached our destination so we had a coffee and looked around then spotted something up on the hill and decided to back track along the road where we had passed a coach earlier. This time we found the proper site and we were glad we did. Most of what can be seen dates from Roman times though the site has been inhabited since 5500BC. I expect most will find the theatre and baths as expected but I thought the mosaic floors were the best part; however, I don't think my pictures do it justice there are far better already posted!
