Cyclops Cave & Sea Caves, Cape Greko
Clifftop paths, sea caves and impossibly blue water at the island's south-east tip.
Cape Greko — Cavo Greco — is a protected headland of white cliffs, hidden sea caves and turquoise water between Ayia Napa and Protaras. Easy coastal paths link the famous sea caves, the Cyclops cave and a string of clifftop viewpoints.
What you'll see
- The sea caves and their turquoise coves
- The Cyclops Cave carved into the cliffs
- Clifftop viewpoints and the little Agioi Anargyroi chapel
- Snorkelling, swimming and cliff-jumping spots
- The Kamara tou Koraka natural rock arch
The walk
A network of easy trails and boardwalks runs along the cliffs from the sea caves toward the cape. You can make a short loop or a longer clifftop walk, with plenty of places to stop, look down into the coves and swim.
Getting there
Between Ayia Napa and Protaras, about 10 minutes from either; there are several car parks along the park road, near the sea caves, the cape and the chapel. Get directions →
Good to know before you go
There is little shade on the cliffs, so sun protection and water are essential, and it pays to take care near the edges. The light is best early or late, and the swimming is superb.
