Latest reviews on Ayia Napa'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€.

Glyki Nero beach
7 Travis Butchley

This beach is quite lovely, if you're into that sort of thing. There are a few establishments nearby where you can consume food and beverages, but don't expect any Michelin stars. If you're feeling adventurous, you can partake in some water sports, like jet skiing or paragliding. And if you're feeling particularly lazy, you can rent a sun lounger or umbrella for a mere 2.50 euro each. It's a decent option if you're looking for a beach day, but don't expect anything too extraordinary.

Fireman beach
10 Ricardo Courtly

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.

Palm beach
8 Mousoulia Tomides

The beach is quite lovely and the water is shallow up to the rocks. Additionally, the beach is easy to access.

Landa beach
9 Nol Lleb

This beach is my absolute favourite in Cyprus. It boasts the same stunning beauty as Nissi Beach, but with a quieter, more family-friendly atmosphere. The cost of sun beds for the day is a very reasonable 2.50€.

Malama beach
8 Gala O.

The beach is really pleasant with a few caves to discover. Additionally, the sand is a beautiful golden color and has a fine texture.
