Cyprus Saint Eutychios Chapel (Άγιος Ευτύχιος)

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
The Chapel of Saint Eutychios has a lot to offer, especially if you‘re an astrophotographer.
- Stand North of the Chapel to get the MW and Rho Ophiuchi in the background.
- Stand South of the Chapel to get a star trail image including Polaris
- Stand West of it to get a Milky Way Panorama, or the moon rising (at a certain time of the year)
… all while including part of the front of the chapel in the image.

In general, it‘s a very quiet place, with plenty of room around. It‘s also beautiful in the spring when the fields around turn green.

Photography Tips

If there is one lens you are bringing with you, a standard zoom (such as 24-105mm) will allow you to get most possible shots. If astro is your main goal, adjust according to which part of the sky you intend to photograph.

What I can tell you, is that there is enough space, even for the short telephoto range, such as 100mm (full frame) and depending on where you choose to stand, even longer.

Travel Information

The only way to get there is by car. From a point onwards, there is a 2-3 minute drive on a mud road, but at the time of writing this, the road is in an excellent condition and any type of car will have no issues. There is enough space to park (free).

As always in Cyprus, keep an eye for the presence of snakes. This is a fairly remote area with many fields and vegetation around (although there is some free space around the church).
