The Beach Code

Safety in Protaras

Experience the Mediterranean with confidence. Our guidelines ensure a safe, respectful environment for everyone on the Paralimni coastline.

Lifeguard Corridors

Keep the first 3 meters from the water’s edge clear. This space is vital for lifeguard emergency access and rapid response.

Protect the Seabed

Environment & Waste

Zero tolerance for littering. Use designated bins for plastics and disposables to keep our turquoise waters crystal clear.
