There’s something truly special about Easter in Cyprus, and this year’s celebration in Pissouri Square captured all the charm and tradition we could have hoped for.
The square came alive with the sounds of traditional music—the kind that echoes through stone walls and dances on the breeze. From our sunny spot on the veranda of the local coffee shop, we sipped our drinks and watched the village come together in celebration. The dancing was full of energy and joy, with colourful skirts swirling and proud steps stamping in time with the rhythm. Even the youngest locals joined in, with shy smiles and eager feet.
After soaking up the atmosphere, we strolled through of the square, stopping to talk to various friends who were enjoying meals at the local restaurants.
Our walk led us to the Flamingo Bar, where the festivities continued in a more laid-back style.
There, we met up with friends—old faces and new—and shared a couple of drinks under the afternoon sun. The highlight? Without a doubt, Bob’s homemade hot dogs, fresh off the grill, perfectly simple and exactly what the moment called for.
It was an afternoon of good company, great weather, and that easygoing village magic that makes Pissouri feel like home.
Meanwhile in South Wales, Our God children, Cari and Jude enjoyed the fruits of their Easter egg hunt.
