Petra tou Romiou — Aphrodite's Rock — is a dramatic sea stack rising from the Mediterranean 25 kilometres east of Paphos, said to be the birthplace of Aphrodite from the sea foam and the most romantic spot on the entire island. At sunset the golden light on the white limestone and the turquoise water below creates a scene of extraordinary beauty. Hotels near Aphrodite's Rock combine visits to this legendary site with exploration of the ancient Sanctuary of Aphrodite at nearby Kouklia.
