GOVERNOR’S BEACH-LIMASSOL CYPRUS

Governor’s Beach

More appealing beaches can be found 29km east of Limassol at Governor’s beach (Akti Kyvernitou), just  a few kilometres off the expressway at  Exit 16. Here several coves of fine dark sand contrast dramatically with the low chalk cliffs that back them. The shore fills quickly on warm weekends and each cove dominated by spruced-up tavernas , their manicured lawngardens sloping down to the sand, and a few flats to rent-though these are now vastly outnumbered by villas proliferating just inland.

The road form the expressway forks almost  immediately and where the righthand turning splits again(actually either bearing joins to from a loop),a signboard locates the various, expensive tavernas. Bearing  right first leads to the broadest , cleanest , most sheltered stretch of sand and sunbeds, with the  Akti Sofronionu , Kamintzis , Adamos and Faros tavernas clustered around . from the lighthouse cape beyond, looking towards the eyesore industrial installations  at Vasolikos , one can walk west over white-rock cliffs, which have a reputation as a gay hangout. The covers on the far left are narrower and more sacluded, served by the Panayiotis taverna.
