Quad bike (ATV) Rentals in Paphos

Picture leaving Paphos harbour behind and pointing a quad-bike inland, dust rising as the road turns to track and the pine forest of the Akamas opens up ahead. This is a place where the best sights sit past the point where the tarmac gives up — the limestone walls of Avakas Gorge, the wild sand of Lara Bay, ridgelines with the sea on one side and nothing but scrub on the other. If you want to rent a quad bike in Paphos, this is exactly the kind of terrain it was built for, and our website makes it easy to book one for the day.

Paphos is a city of two halves: a walkable old town and harbour, and then a hinterland of dirt roads, river valleys and hill villages that buses and taxis simply don't reach. A scooter won't get traction on loose gravel, and a hire car will turn you back at the first unsurfaced track. A quad handles both, and the distances involved — usually 10 to 30 km between town, coast and inland villages — make for a comfortable day loop rather than an expedition. Add Cyprus's dry climate, and most of the year the trails are in rideable condition.

Top 10 things to see in Paphos by quad bike

1. Akamas Peninsula — the classic quad-biking destination near Paphos, with unpaved tracks through pine forest, sea-view ridges and the Blue Lagoon area.
2. Avakas Gorge — a dramatic limestone canyon on the edge of the Akamas, with rugged trails leading right up to the gorge entrance.
3. Lara Bay — a remote, unspoiled beach and turtle-nesting site reachable mainly by dirt track, a favourite turnaround point on quad tours.
4. Aphrodite's Rock (Petra tou Romiou) — Cyprus's most photographed coastal landmark, along a scenic ride east on the Paphos–Limassol road.
5. Adonis Baths — a waterfall and river pools tucked into a valley, reached via inland dirt roads popular with quad tours.
6. Statos-Agios Fotios and the Vouni Panagia wine villages — hill villages among vineyards, ideal for a longer loop with mountain views and quiet roads.
7. Tombs of the Kings — a UNESCO-listed rock-cut necropolis on the coast just outside Paphos, an easy in-town stop.
8. Coral Bay — a popular sandy beach close to town, a good first stop to get the feel of the bike before rougher terrain.
9. Geroskipou — a traditional village with a Byzantine church, a short easy ride to get your bearings before a longer route.
10. Paphos Harbour and the Medieval Fort — a natural start and end point for the loop, with the old harbour and promenade to explore on foot afterwards.

What do you need to rent a quad bike in Paphos?

A full car driving licence (category B) is normally accepted for road-legal registered quads in Cyprus, and rental shops will expect you to be at least 18. An International Driving Permit is required alongside your licence if it wasn't issued in the EU. You'll also need to leave a deposit, usually held on a card — if a shop asks to hold your passport instead, you're entitled to offer a card deposit in its place. Helmets are compulsory for rider and passenger alike.

How much does it cost to rent a quad bike in Paphos?

Expect to pay around 15–25 EUR per day in low season, and 35–50 EUR per day in high season; premium models run 55–70 EUR per day.

• Cheapest rates: November to February.
• Highest rates and least availability: July and August.
• Shoulder months tend to land comfortably in between.

When to book a rental quad bike in Paphos?

April, May, September and October give you the best riding conditions — warm, dry, long daylight, without the punishing midsummer heat. High season runs through June, July and August, when prices peak and availability tightens fast, so book ahead if you're travelling in August. Low season, November through March, is your best bet for value, though it's also the wettest stretch and mountain routes can turn cold. On the coast around Paphos, quad-biking works year-round; the real limit is summer heat, so in July and August ride early or late in the day and carry more water than seems necessary.

Local traffic rules in Paphos

Cyprus drives on the left, so keep that in mind on roundabouts, which run clockwise with priority given to traffic already on them. Helmets are compulsory for quad riders and passengers, and you'll be fined on the spot for riding without one. Speed limits are 50 km/h in town, 80 km/h on rural roads and 100 km/h on motorways. The blood-alcohol limit is 0.05%, and using a hand-held phone while riding is not allowed. Many rental agreements exclude unsurfaced tracks for insurance reasons, so always check with your operator which of the routes above are actually covered before you set off.
