Pissouri and the Local Area

At one time Pissouri village, on the hill, had a fishing jetty a few kilometres away down the hill, known as Pissouri jetty. Now they are two distinct communities, Pissouri village and Pissouri Beach.

The total population in the summer is said to reach around 1100 people, about half of whom are Cypriots, the rest foreign, mainly British, residents and visitors.

Friday night is Cyprus Night* at the Vine Leaf taverna in Pissouri Bay where residents and holiday makers may watch a display of traditional Cypriot dancing and enjoy Cypriot food and drink. After the display the evening is yours to dance or talk with friends both old and new.
* May to October
