Coral Bay and Wild Beaches
Most Pafos beaches: pebbly. But Coral Bay: golden sand, one of Cyprus's best. Plus Akamas Peninsula's untouched beaches reachable only by boat or hike.
The Beaches
Coral Bay (golden sand, family-friendly). Lara Beach (turtle nesting, nature reserve, SUV access). Blue Lagoon (paradise water, boat or hike only). Municipal Beach (city, pebbly, practical).
The section on "Coral Bay and Wild Beaches" was the most valuable for us. We couldn't find this information anywhere else before our move. It saved us a lot of time and hassle.
