After the breakdown of the Amathous Council and the return of the area under its jurisdiction to their rightful owners, the Community Council of Mouttagiaka has placed under its jurisdiction the area that extends from the village, passes through the Limassol-Nicosia highway and reaches up to the coast.
This area, although small, has rapidly developed during recent years, with tourist resorts, organised apartment complexes, restaurants, taverns, night clubs and shops, that service the tourists -but also the inhabitants of the area -all year round. The coastal frontier, although small in its size (about 500 meters), during the summer is packed with bathers, foreign travellers, and Cypriots, enjoying the blue sea and the crystal-clear, golden beach, which is cleaned twice a day, under that bright blue Cyprus sky. There is only one small hotel in the coastal area of Mouttagiaka, the AQUARIUS, which hosts several tourists, especially during the summer season. During the summer season there also are two Water Parks, the WET 'N' WILD WATER PARK and the PIRATES WATER PARK, two places that can offer joy, coolness, and unforgettable moments of fun to both young and old.
For the cinema lovers, the K. CINEPLEX, one of the largest movie theatre complexes in Cyprus, operates in Mouttagiaka. It has a cafeteria and five projection halls that operate at the same time, with premiere movies being played every day.
Foreign tourists -as well as Cypriots -can have fun and enjoy the traditional Cypriot cuisine and Cypriot hospitality in the taverns positioned along both sides of the coastal road and in the surrounding area. The seafood tavern AKTAION, the tavern Ksoporti, the restaurants OLD LIMASSOL and SPICES, as well as the restaurant of the Nautical Club of Kerynia, all offer great gastronomic pleasures and an extended wine-cellar. In RIO BRAVO there is a great variety of Mexican food. In the heart of the village, there's the seafood tavern HILL HOUSE and the FOROSOS TAVERN. There are many Take-away restaurants in the tourism region of Mouttagiaka, as well as Kebab Houses that offer the traditional Cypriot "souvlaki" (shish kebab).
After the delightful meal, the tourism region of Mouttagiaka can offer entertainment until daybreak. The COHI BAR and the Club PRIVE offer a special note of entertainment with Greek and foreign music. The Gentlemen's Club, the SILK & VELVET, as well as the MIRAGE, offer their own different kind of program.
