Agios Nikandros Forest Park is a serene natural area in Cyprus, offering a peaceful escape with its lush greenery and well-maintained trails. Named after Saint Nikandros, a monk known for his piety and dedication to helping the poor and sick, the park reflects his legacy of compassion and spirituality. It's ideal for hiking, picnicking, and enjoying the island's native flora and fauna. The park contrasts the bustling beach areas, allowing visitors to experience the tranquillity of Cyprus's natural landscapes.
Landa Beach, known as Golden Beach, is near Agios Nikandros Forest Park. It is known for its fine, golden sand and clear, shallow waters, making it a favourite for families and those looking for a more relaxed beach experience. The beach has amenities, including sunbeds, umbrellas, and nearby cafes and restaurants, ensuring a comfortable visit.
Adjacent to Landa Beach is a picturesque bay, perfect for snorkelling and swimming. While the coastline here is not as karstic as some other areas, there are a few rocky outcrops, creating an ideal environment for exploring marine life. This bay is less crowded than the famous beaches nearby, offering a more secluded and peaceful environment for beachgoers.
Before you lies the most romantic stroll along the Cypriot coast. You will find the most beautiful beach in Cyprus with white sand and crystal-clear turquoise water. Next, the Love Bridge awaits you, where you can take stunning photos. Then, marvel at the sea in the sea caves where, according to legend, pirates hid their treasures, and be impressed by the endless sea view from Cape Greco. Additionally, enjoy a walk through the park and the ornithological center, where, if you're lucky, you can see sea turtles at Raven's Arch and descend into the grotto under the Church of the Holy Unmercenaries. To top it off, dine at Isaac's Tavern on the Ayia Napa promenade and enjoy the sunset.
