This circular coastal walk starts and finishes at beautiful Konnos beach at the northern tip of Cape Greko park. The standard route is 10 km long on the rocky coast. Cape Greko park is a small park between the bustling beach resorts of Ayia Napa and Protaras. The itinerary goes by major attractions in the area including Agioi Anargyroi chapel (and adjacent cave), Kamara tou Koraka natural, Cape Greko Rock and Cape Greko Sea Caves Cove (known as Palathkia 'ie Palaces). Cape Greko park is a good destination also for birdwatchers, especially during spring migration. The waters are usually very calm on the east side. In the hot season sea turtles visit the area to feed. In older times the Mediterranean monk seal was also around - now a few individuals are spotted here sporadically.

Konnos Bay, Ayia Napa, Cyprus Konnos beach is one of the most beautiful in the south east part of Cyprus as well as the whole island. Excellent place for swimming, hanging out and snorkeling. Many times sea turtles are spotted here. Depending on the duration package booked, we will either pause very briefly here or go for a dip. 15 minutes
Agioi Anargyroi Chapel, Ayia Napa, Cyprus This is a small chapel right on the rugged coast towards the north east part of Cape Greko park. The style is reminiscent of Greek aegean islands rather than of Cyprus. There is a cave/sanctuary close to the modern chapel. A bit further on the coast towards the south one can find 'Kamara tou Koraka' natural arch. It is an interested place to visit, though now going on it is prohibited and can be dangerous. 20 minutes
Cape Greco View Point, Ayia Napa, Cyprus Cape Greko rock is an omposing mass that can be seen from afar (upto the coastline near Xylofagou. From here one enjoys excellent views of the whole park, the sea and beyond. There at least two different itineraries we can take for the walk. One of them is along the coast all the way whereas the other one passes through here. Usually we choose the later and ascend (and consequently descend) the rock. 30 minutes
Sea Caves, Ayia Napa, Cyprus The Sea Caves of Cape Greko (know by Greek Cypriots as 'Palathkia' or 'Palaces' in English) is a cove with a collection of sea caves and a major attraction in the area. It is thought that in older times (before mass tourism) this was a place used by Monachus monachus seals to give birth and raise the young ones.
There is another collection of Sea Caves near Agia Napa, which is in fact the end of our walking trip. It takes teh guide between 20-30 minutes to retrieve the car. At this time the walkers could explore the sea caves (they include the so called 'Lovers bridge'), visit the nearby beach of Glyky Nero or visit the free open air sculpture museum nearby. 20 minutes
Agioi Saranta Cave Church, Protaras, Cyprus This is a very particular cave church in Protaras. We visit here depending on the package (if we have enough time) and depending on the pace of the walk, etc.

Nice walks and fantastic swimming spots. Phivos is very knowledgeable about Cypriot myths and history (which I enjoyed discussing) as well as flora and fauna (I think I disappointed Phivos with my complete lack of knowledge here). After the walk we checked out some beautiful chapels and churches. A great way to see Cape Greko and surrounding area!
