Marathi Beach

TIME : 2016/2/18 18:55:18

On the eastern side of Akrotiri peninsula the pleasant beach of Marathi is a lovely spot beyond the NATO base with two sandy coves and turquoise waters on either side of a small pier. The ruins of Ancient Minoa are next to the car park. Marathi gets crowded with local families at weekends and has a couple of tavernas.

Further south along this coastline you’ll find another nice swimming and snorkelling spot at the small white-stone cove of Loutraki .
