The story
Polis Fish Festival in Polis Chrysochous
The Municipality of Polis Chrysochous organises its annual Fish Festival at the picturesque harbour of Latchi each spring, typically held one day each spring, eleven until seven. Free fried whitebait, live fish cooking demonstrations, fishermen showing their trade, Fisheries Department education, traditional product stalls and craft demonstrations including basket weaving fill the harbour-side day.
Free fresh fried whitebait, handed out to visitors rather than sold, anchors the culinary side of the Fish Festival organised annually by the Municipality of Polis Chrysochous at the picturesque harbour of Latchi, an event that has become a beloved spring fixture bringing together fishermen, chefs, visitors and children for a full day by the water, typically running from eleven in the morning until seven in the evening.
