Katapola itself is busy with a waterfront lined with cafes, taverns and mini-markets and a shelter for sailing boats. On the hill above Katapola, the excavations of the ancient city of Minoa, are of significant value. At the head of the bay lies Rahidi, with the large church of St George and the village that lies behind it. The most picturesque part of Katapola is the third section called Xilokeratidi, with its pretty narrow streets and a couple of taverns where you can sit in the shade of large trees and enjoy the view.
