Laourou Beach (Corallia Beach)

Calm, shallow Blue Flag sandy bay just north of Coral Bay, sheltered by a breakwater and ideal for toddlers.

Neighboring famous Coral Bay, Laourou Beach (often called Corallia Beach) sits in a sheltered crescent protected from waves by a natural headland and breakwater.

Its stone-free golden sand and knee-deep crystal-clear water make it one of the safest and most relaxing family beaches in western Cyprus.

Tips before you go

  • Great snorkeling along the rocky reef at the northern edge of the bay.
  • Served directly by Paphos bus route 615 from Kato Paphos harbor.
  • West-facing orientation offers gorgeous sea sunsets.

How to get there

1.5 km northwest of Coral Bay along Coral Bay Avenue in Peyia.
