Paphos Airport (PFO) is one of the cheapest places in the Mediterranean to rent a car – economy cars start around €17–34/day ($20–40), with budget locals from as little as $8–12/day – and the one big adjustment is that Cyprus drives on the left in right-hand-drive cars. There are no toll roads anywhere on the island, so touring to Coral Bay, the Akamas, Limassol and the Troodos costs nothing in tolls. February is the cheapest month; August the dearest.
