Set on the south-eastern coast of Cyprus, Protaras is a relaxed seaside town celebrated for its family-friendly atmosphere, golden beaches and exceptionally clear waters. Sheltered from strong winds and blessed with a gentle Mediterranean rhythm, it is an ideal destination for easygoing beach holidays and outdoor pleasures. By day, calm coves invite swimming and snorkelling; by evening, the town comes alive with sunset strolls, waterfront dining and a warm, welcoming ambience that appeals to all generations.

Must-sees:

• Fig Tree Bay: Protaras’ most famous beach, known for its soft sand and shallow, crystal-clear waters.
• Protaras Coastal Promenade: A modern pedestrian walkway ideal for leisurely walks along the shoreline.
• Cape Greco: A dramatic headland with sea caves, hiking trails and panoramic sunrise viewpoints.
• Ocean Aquarium: A popular family attraction showcasing marine life from the Mediterranean and beyond.
• Ayios Elias Church: A hilltop church offering sweeping views across Protaras and the surrounding coast.

Culinary culture:

Dining in Protaras highlights the flavours of Cypriot and Mediterranean cuisine. Expect fresh grilled fish, meze platters, halloumi cheese and slow-cooked dishes infused with herbs and olive oil. Seafront taverns and relaxed cafés provide inviting settings for long lunches and sunset dinners, often accompanied by local wines or a refreshing glass of Cypriot beer.

Dive deeper:

Beyond its beaches, Protaras encourages gentle exploration. Take a boat trip along the coast to discover hidden coves, snorkel above colourful reefs, or wander inland to find small chapels and quiet viewpoints. Early risers can head to elevated spots near Cape Greco to witness one of Europe’s earliest sunrises — a peaceful, memorable moment over the Mediterranean Sea.

Good to know:

Protaras is located about 50 minutes from Larnaca Airport by car. The best time to visit is from May to October, when warm temperatures and calm seas are ideal for swimming and outdoor activities. The local currency is the euro (€).
