About this app

15 beaches (135 in full app version) at your fingertips are ready to be explored. Starting from the picturesque Scouts Beach in Famagusta and ending at Kryoneri Beach in Kato Pyrgos you can discover:

• Blue Flag beaches, isolated romantic coves, the finest sand and the bluest waters
• Food and drink by the beach and picnic grounds
• Beaches ideal for children and disabled people
• Water-sports facilities and best spots for snorkeling and fishing
• Footpaths to ‘walk on the sea’ and interesting places to explore
• Chapels by the sea
• Directions how to access all beaches by car, or bus if feasible
• The critically endangered Monachus monachus seal and the largest hard-shelled turtle, Caretta caretta and other wildlife
• Beach tips such as what local fish to eat, what happens if you drink salt water and where to see the most beautiful sunsets.

Search through beaches one-by-one, or lay back and enjoy a slideshow of more than 500 aerial and ground photographs to find your favourite ones.

Alternatively, use the Filter tool, to identify the beaches according to your preferences. For example:

• If you are a family with young children you may choose ‘Sand’ under Beach Morphology, ‘Children Friendly’ under Visitors and ‘Lifeguard’ under Beach Facilities
• If you are a couple who want to get away from the busy beach scene, you may choose ‘Few’ under Visitors and ‘Romantic’ under Atmosphere
• If you are a person who needs to have easy access to the beach, you may choose ‘Flat Ground’ under Terrain/Access.
