Adonis Baths is a waterfall near Krya Vrysi and Lakkos tou Fragkou.[1] It is located 267 m above sea level.[2][3] In the village of Koili,[4] in the province of Pafos, where Mavrokolympos flows, the waters gather and form a small waterfall.[5] These waters over the centuries eroded the soil and formed a small lake.[6] According to Greek mythology, this is where Adonis and Aphrodite would meet to spend time together.[7]
