Lady's Mile Beach

5 km expanse of soft sand and ultra-shallow warm water, the top choice for families with toddlers.

Limassol's longest coastal strip, running along the eastern edge of the Akrotiri peninsula. The seabed shelves so gently that waist-deep water is found dozens of meters out.

A string of well-equipped beach bars and seafood venues (like Captain's Cabin and Aplostra) offer plush sunbeds, timber boardwalks, and shaded playgrounds.

Tips before you go

  • Unmatched for young toddlers learning to paddle safely.
  • Drive slowly on the unpaved coastal service road.
  • In winter, the salt lake behind the beach hosts thousands of flamingos.

How to get there

10 minutes south from Limassol New Port toward Akrotiri Peninsula.
