About Aphrodite's Rock
Petra tou Romiou, known in English as Aphrodite's Rock, is a cluster of limestone sea stacks on the Paphos coast where, according to Hesiod's Theogony, Aphrodite came ashore on a bed of sea foam. A separate, later legend credits the Byzantine hero Digenis Akritas with hurling the boulders at raiding Saracens, giving the rock its Greek name, "rock of the Greek." Visitors still swim around it for luck, and the pull-off above the beach is one of the most photographed viewpoints on the island.
