Cape Greco Clifftop Monument

The southeasternmost accessible point of Cyprus with panoramic clifftop views across the Mediterranean.

Perched high on the Cape Greco promontory, this scenic viewpoint features the Peace Monument and clifftop benches perched above soaring sea bluffs.

On crystal-clear winter mornings, the Lebanese mountains are occasionally visible on the distant horizon, while turquoise bays ripple below.

Tips before you go

  • Watch the sunrise: you will be among the first in Europe to greet the new day.
  • Bring binoculars to watch for migratory birds and passing pods of dolphins.
  • Sea breezes can be gusty on the open lookout hill.

How to get there

At the end of Cavo Greco Road. Free parking lot at the foot of the hill.
