Must see in Ayia Napa & Protaras

Here is a list of what I recommend not to miss if you reach the East side of the island. I wrote a few words, added photos and put links to videos 😊

I hope there will be fewer and fewer people who will say “Aaaa, look, we should have gone here too!”, Or “If I knew, I would go and see this place too!”.

***

Ayia Napa

Nissi Beach is the most famous beach in Cyprus and is the place where you will find music and fun on the sand. Plus, you don’t have the chance to walk across the water from the beach to an island too often!

🚩See here the video 👇

***

Sea Caves – the fearless jump into the water from the rock, others just dare to reach the hole in the wall for pictures and most of us just sit and watch from the edge!

🚩See if you can jump also! 👇

***

Cape Greco – is the place where you have to see a sunset if you are in the area, from the top of the rock. Plus, the panoramic view of Ayia Napa is unforgettable.

🚩And a short video to convince you that is worth it! 👇

***

Love Bridge – is a naturally formed stone arch. You can find it at the end of the main beach in Ayia Napa, the one next to the port.

***

Statue Park – near Love Bridge. Worth exploring with a hat on your head and plenty of water with you 😉

***

Water Park – I think it’s the biggest on the island and will definitely keep you busy for one day. Slides, pools and all sorts of crazy things for all ages.

***

Luna Park – the amusement park opens in the evening and runs until after midnight.

***

MUSAN – the underwater museum at Pernera beach. It can only be explored if you go with the companies that also do scuba diving.

***

Crazy Street – the clubs are concentrated in one area that I call the Crazy Street. You can find it next to the medieval monastery or following the young people who go in a row to their destination.

***

Marina Ayia Napa – not ready yet, but the promenade and shopping area is open for the curious.

Protaras

Fig Tree Bay – the beach with figs and the island where you have to swim to reach it. The most beautiful water and view in the area!

🚩There is no way you don’t like it here 👇

***

Green Bay – spectacular area where you will also find turtles if you go snorkeling or diving.

***

Konnos Bay – the only beach that will make you think of Greece in this side of the island.

🚩It’s debatable whether Konnos is in Protaras or Ayia Napa.” I say go and see for yourself 👇

***

Cyclop’s Cave – you can find it with the help of maps and you can get there on foot, on the paths that start from Konnos Bay. The view of the bay is beautiful.

***

The cave at Ayios Anargirou Chapel – you can go down to it and enter the water there. Some people also practice jumping in the water there. Don’t miss the Bridge of Lovers in the area either – Kamara Tou Koraka Stone Arch Monarchus Arch “Love Bridge” – they forbid access to it, but it can still be reached.

🚩See how the cave look from the boat 👇

***

Kalamies beach in Pernera – spectacular in the evening due to the lights from the restaurants in the area and the chapel of St. Nicholas. Plus, next to the chapel is the beautifully lit harbor at night. The Marina is being built next to it.

***

Agia Triada beach – the landscape is beautiful and atypically for the area.

***

Kaparis – Beach bars on the Kalifa and Kohili beach. They are on different beaches and whatever you choose the view is beautiful.

***

St. Elijah’s Church – on the rock at the entrance to Protaras. A few steps lead you to a beautiful view of the place and the church is beautiful.
