Comment: Polis (or Polis Chrysochous) is a small town at the north-west end of the island of Cyprus, at the centre of Chrysochous Bay, and on the edge of the Akamas peninsula nature reserve. It is a quiet tourist resort, the inhabitants' income being supplemented by agriculture and fishing.

Polis is served by the fishing port of Latsi - a pole of attraction all the year round and reputed for its fish taverns, its sea-sport facilities and boat rides up to Akamas - a must for all Polis visitors. However, the great advantage of Polis is its close vicinity to the utmost beautiful Akamas peninsula, a nature reserve area destined to become a National Park,with its renowned Baths of Aphrodite. A walk along its nature trails accompanied by the panoramic view of the bay of Polis is a unique experience.
