My first month in Paphos was a nightmare… Men would honk at me on the street, stop their cars to ask if they could take me somewhere, and one drunk man at the bus stop at 8 p.m. threw insulting comments at me. I lived in Athens for many years, and I never felt the same fear of walking home alone there as I do here.

Paphos is very safe in my opinion. Like any other place it depends on the area. I enjoy afternoon activities like running by the beach, or evening walks near the harbour. It is usually filled with tourists, families and the people there are very welcoming.
