To be honest, yes.
This is the perfect part of the year when its sufficiently clement for swimming most of the time, the sun is warm rather than hot, and if we get lucky then there is still going to be a bit of rain left before summer inevitably rolls on in.
One of the plusses for this year’s preparations for the tourist season is that the local council took the trouble to clean out the 3rd century tomb that they discovered back in 2010 when first constructing the walkway – untouched and complete from the time the last sarcophagus was placed.
This means the four occupants rested undisturbed through something like 1,700 years before the workers beginning the coastal path in Fig Tree Bay uncovered the nine steps down into the rock. And for most of this time, the only sounds would have been the sea, an occasional storm, and an uninterrupted view of the coast and the passing ships.
I wonder what these peace-loving citizens would have thought of modern Ayia Napa…kind of difficult for them to move away to somewhere further down the coast this late in the day…
