Ayia Napa's most central beach, located by the harbour and close to town. 

This beach is known by many names, including Limanaki Beach, town beach, Harbour beach and Grecian Bay. The official names for the 2 stretches of sand which make up the beach are Pantachou nearest the harbour, and Glyki Nero (sweet water) furthest East. 

It is the closest beach to the centre of Ayia Napa and starts at the harbour. The beach stretches eastwards towards the Ayia Napa sea caves and is one long sweep of fine golden sand. 

The hotels than line the beach are mostly 4 and 5 star properties, some have their own section of beach roped off for their clients. There are also a good selection of beach cafe's and beach bars and restaurants along the beach. ​

A picturesque beach with lots to do

This beach is busy in the summer but almost deserted during the winter months. The two beaches together make a good walk from one end to the other and back and there are plenty of spots to swim safely, although you will find some parts of Pantachou beach to be quiet rocky. There's a good choice of beach bars to hang out in during the day or to get snacks and refreshments.
