User reviews
"The beach is truly stunning and should definitely be on your list of places to visit. One of the highlights is the impressive cave, which is quite large and requires a bit of a walk around the cliff to reach (don't worry, there are ropes to keep you safe). Plus, it's worth noting that the beach has free public entry."
Zorica Jurevic
"The beach is an absolute delight to behold! One can explore the caves and capture some breathtaking moments. Moreover, the adrenaline junkies can dive into the crystal clear blue water from a 15m cliff. The spot designated for cliff jumping is safe and deep enough to ensure a thrilling experience. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to witness the beauty of nature ..."

It is difficult to think of any entertainment and activities when you are on the beach. To swim, to sunbathe, to drink a couple of cocktails, again to swim and again to sunbathe, the variety usually is very limited. But on Sea Caves you can test yourself in such an activity as water jumping. It's fun and it's scary, the rest you have to experience on your own.
In most cases, the question What to do on Sea Caves implies the presence of any excursions or attractions near the beach. Of course in this area there are lots of places to go besides the beach. There are historical, entertainment and even gastronomic tours offered by local guides. More information is better to clarify directly on the spot.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Sea Caves (Cyprus) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Sea Caves (Cyprus) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Sea Caves for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
