Bus lines serving Kouklia

Times and trip counts come from the Ministry of Transport’s open timetable data for the week of 5–11 October 2026. Each card is a line this guide follows between Kouklia and other places on the site. Times are at the Kouklia stop the card names: departures for buses that leave or pass through, arrivals for buses that end there. Operators change timetables by season and on public holidays, so open the operator’s page before you travel.

    OSYPA's own route 631 page, read on 3 October 2026, prints the same daytime departures, with small differences: it gives the first bus as leaving the harbour at 07:25 (06:30 on Sundays) where the Ministry data starts it at the Tombs of the Kings station at 07:25 (06:25 on Sundays), and its Sunday list from Petra tou Romiou starts at 08:20 where the data has 08:15. Both have the last bus leaving Petra tou Romiou at 23:15 for Aphrodite Hills; OSYPA says it waits there until 00:05 and then runs to the harbour, while the data has a separate bus leave Aphrodite Hills at 00:00.

Worth your time

What Kouklia does best

Kouklia, about 16 km east of Paphos, is built over Palaepaphos, the ancient city with the Sanctuary of Aphrodite. OSYPA route 631 from Paphos Harbour station to Petra tou Romiou stops at the Kouklia archaeological site, and route 630 from Karavella to Pissouri stops in the village.

  1. Sanctuary of Aphrodite

    Route 631 stops at the archaeological site in Kouklia, on the old Limassol–Paphos road.

  2. Petra tou Romiou next

    The same line continues to Petra tou Romiou, so the two can share a day.

  3. Village stops

    Route 630 uses the stops in the village, numbered in the timetable data from “1st Stop Kouklia”.

Good to know

  • Westbound buses on the old road reach a stop about 0.5 km south of the archaeological site first; each card names the stop its times are for.
  • OSYPA’s route 631 page and the timetable data describe the late-evening bus differently; see the card.
  • Route 630 does not run on Sundays.
