Paphos Bus Routes: Which Bus Goes Where
Short answer
Paphos buses run from three hubs: Karavela Station in town, Tombs of the Kings Station and the Harbour Station in Kato Paphos. The routes visitors use most are 612 and 613 (airport), 615 (Coral Bay), 610 and 611 (harbour) and 645 (Polis). Timetables change by season and school term, so check the official page for the day you travel.
The local network is run as Pafos Buses and published route by route on its official website. This guide turns that list into something you can use: which hub to start from, which number goes where, and what to check before you rely on a bus. The detail for each trip is in the guides linked below.
The three hubs
- Karavela Station is the main bus station in the upper town, on the Old Town side. Routes to the airport (613), Polis (645), Pegeia (607), Geroskipou and Timi (601) start here.
- Tombs of the Kings Station is the hub for Kato Paphos. Airport route 612 and Coral Bay route 615 start here. The Tombs of the Kings are nearby.
- Harbour Station is by the harbour and the Archaeological Park entrance. Routes 610 and 611 call here.

The table covers the Pafos district city, suburb and village routes. We have not seen a separate fare table for the airport routes or for Polis, so ask the driver or check the official ticket page. Weekly and monthly passes exist but are sold at the information offices in the main bus stations, not on the bus.
What the buses don't do
The Pafos Buses pages we checked do not list services to Limassol, Larnaca Airport or Nicosia, so we don't cover intercity travel here. The official ticket page does list intercity fares, but the route pages we checked do not show intercity routes, so we leave those out. For where a bus is not enough, see Paphos without a car and getting around Paphos.
