Latest reviews on Protaras's beaches

Makronissos beach
9 Alec C

The beach boasts of pristine turquoise water and powdery white sand, making it one of the most exquisite beaches I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. The beauty of this place is indescribable, and it is something that must be experienced firsthand. During my visit, the beach was relatively quiet, but I suspect it can get quite crowded during peak season in July and August. The cost of renting two sun beds and an umbrella is only 7.50€, which is a reasonable price compared to other countries where similar services can cost up to 30€.

Fireman beach

The beach is small and was once a hidden gem known only to the locals, accessible via a dirt track and not easily located. There is a sole ice cream van that provides refreshments. It's worth mentioning that the beach has golden sand. However, over time, it has undergone some changes.

Landa beach
9 Adriana Adeline Pascual

This beach is an absolute gem! The serene and tranquil atmosphere, coupled with crystal clear and calm waters, make it a perfect spot for relaxation and rejuvenation. To add to the charm, there is also a beach bar that serves refreshing drinks and snacks. However, do take note of the rocks in the water while taking a dip. Overall, this is a beach that will leave you feeling refreshed and recharged.
