Romance on Aphrodite's Isle

The beautiful island of Cyprus is known to be home to the goddess of love, Aphrodite. Legend has it that the beautiful goddess rose out from the waves at Aphrodite’s Rock and while it may have happened many centuries ago, her amorous spirit still reigns over the island, creating one of the most romantic destinations to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

The land where love itself was born is filled with romantic settings, the charms of antiquity and the warmth of the Mediterranean Sea making Cyprus the ultimate Valentine’s Day destination. Whether you are walking the Adonis trail and admiring the breathtaking views or enjoying a candlelit dinner for two at the romantic 5-star St Raphael Resort in Limassol, Cyprus really will make this year’s Valentine’s Day that little bit more special.
