Whether you dream of stretching out on the beach with the sand between your toes or tearing through the crystalline water on a Jet Ski, you can make it happen in Protaras. But this resort is not just a pretty face; inland Cyprus offers you have a myriad of charming churches, thrilling live shows and nature trails to explore.
