Boat from Athens to Cyprus?

[Onahi]

I've researched, You can only take a boat from Athens, Greece, to Cyprus. To access the south. From Turkey the south its not possible.
Anyone recently taken this route ?

Moved and title edited.

If you land from Turkey, it’s my understanding you cannot cross into the south as the landing point is not legally recognised.

You can only go from Athens if you need to access the south and that’s a monster ferry trip……

Not much in Cyprus really… not certain it’s worth the effort

I’ve been recently…… but used EasyJet……

Basically, you can't enter from the North as it's occupied territory. Bit of a sore point, kind of "don't mention the war" type of thing.

If you want to ride in Cyprus (and you should! ) check out Ippos Bros. rentals in Paphos.

Cedar Valley Road is a highlight but it's hard to find a bad road once you're away from the coast.

@Wapping . Richard, Why have you re titled my post ? I deliberately didn't want info from Turkey as I know you can not cross in the south of Cyprus ?
You / Ukgser has got worse in my absence. Now changing individual posts . What is going on here ?

It was in the general travel section, Nigel.

Its central theme is a ferry to Cyprus from Greece. There is then a subsidiary comment over the challenges of a ferry from Turkey.

The ‘Greek’ section seemed most appropriate.

PS I will happily move it back and leave the title as ‘Boat’.

I have removed Turkey from the title. Though your opening post might be read that your post asked a question over a voyage from Turkey:

From Turkey the south its not possible.

I have asked why, You have changed the title of my post. In my post it clearly states NOT from Turkey. And yet you change my post to From Turkey. Is this an attempt to yet again provoke me. ?
Why would you put the title as "Boat"

Not recently but we used a ferry from Pireaus to Limassol a couple of times, pretty rough and ready but did the job.
