Paphos Castle

By Paphos Castle, the recording reveals the powerful clash of waves against the harbor walls. Each surge reverberates through the air as boats rock violently, their ropes creaking under the pressure. The relentless energy of the sea fills the soundscape, its intensity underscored by the groaning of the boats. Amid this natural chaos, the castle stands firm, a timeless guardian against the raw force of the elements.
