In summer the sea at Protaras is very calm and the water really warm. The sand is golden. There is a selection of secluded coves and organised sandy stretches. Fig tree and Konnos are probably the most famous of the Protaras beaches. In summer some get really packed.

Ayia Napa has an amazing selection of top quality beaches. The vast majority are organised, Blue flag with golden or white sand, and crystal clear warm water. The water is rather calm, becoming a bit wavy after midday. In summer, many beaches get packed, but you will find some that are less congested. My favorites are Konnos and Nissi, both of which get really packed in summer. The videoclips were not shot in summer. Enjoy your swim.
