Tremetousia (Greek: Τρεμετουσιά, Turkish: Tremeşe/Erdemli) is a village in the Larnaca District of Cyprus, located 7 km east of Athienou. The town is one of only five villages in the Larnaca District under the control of the occupying Turkish forces, the other four being Arsos, Louroujina, Melouseia and Pergamos.
Tremetousia is the modern name of the ancient village called Trimythous or Tremithous, which is internationally known from its Bishop Saint Spyridon of Trimythous.
