Protaras Beaches

The beautiful beaches of Protaras stretch for miles. You can walk the coast line all the way from Ayia Napa to Kapparis if you wanted to, following through Cape Greco, Green Bay, Protaras, Pernera and Ayia Triada. Linking all the areas together there are many caves and coves waiting to be discovered.

Protaras has some of the loveliest stretches of beaches, with white sand and crystal clear waters... so clear you can see your own feet. The warm waters gently lap against the shore as holidays makers from all over the world come to enjoy the surroundings.

The most famous beach of Protaras is "Fig Tree Bay", mainly famous for the island that it looks over. There is a small island that is swimming distance from the beach and is a focal point of the beach.

Along the walkways from Fig Tree bay to other Protaras beaches known as Sunrise and Yianna Marie there are beautiful flowers and palm trees along with a volleyball area overlooking the sea for anyone usage.

There are plenty of places to stop for refreshments along the walk, try a "Frapee" a local cold ice coffee, very nice and refreshing and usually served with a glass of water. There are different types of frappe so order it how you like, I like mine with mainly milk, a little bit of water and very sweet.

On the beaches you will find water sport activities:

• Banana boat


• donut rings


• Fly fish


• Jet Ski


• speed boats
  
• Pedalo


• Paragliding


• Water skiing


• canoe's

Plus there are boat trips from the beaches, different types some with BBQ's, some history trips, some fun trips too. Also there are private trips and night boat trips as well which are worth some consideration. Other water activities available at the beach are massages at sun down and diving.
