Many of you come to the island in the summer, when it is hot and the Mediterranean water is mostly warm and calm, like the water of a lake. And that’s good because we can all enjoy it.
Winter, however, is a different story, because we also have days, not very many to be honest, when the Mediterranean entertains us with waves. And when you see that the wind is blowing at over 40 km/h, it’s a shame not to go see the show offered by the sea.

Chasing waves
Only that I’m never content to go to one place to look. No. I have to take the beaches one by one and all the places where I know the water jumps over you if you get too close to the shore.
It’s like a highly addictive drug. And then I have to choose only a few of the dozens of pictures (actually there are more than a hundred almost every time 🤦♀️) and show you how beautiful the sea is in the winter!
So on the second day of Christmas I went to watch the waves starting from Kapparis, from the border with the occupied side and up to Protaras, at Fig Tree Bay. On a wind of over 40 km/h, fortunately warm, about 17-18 degrees Celsius outside, it was a pleasure!

Kapparis
I started with the area near the border with the occupied side because it is the closest to the house. And because it always amuses me to see how my favorite beach disappears under the waves when the sea is rough.
Doggie beach
It is quite well protected naturally. And it’s the only one in the area intended exclusively for dogs.
Ayia Triada
It is on the border between Kapparis and Pernera. And it’s a very beautiful area, with lots of trees and lots of cats.
Pernera
I wanted to see just a little bit of Kalamies Beach, the one near the port.
Fig Tree Bay, Protaras
This natural beach in Protaras seems extraordinarily beautiful to me, regardless of the weather, how calm or rough the sea is.
