Konnos Bay Travel Guide
is a breathtaking beach located between Protaras and Cape Greco. Surrounded by cliffs and pine trees, it offers one of the most scenic coastal views in Cyprus.
The beach is smaller than Fig Tree Bay but incredibly picturesque. The clear water makes it ideal for snorkeling and swimming.
Visitors can rent sunbeds and umbrellas, and there is a restaurant overlooking the bay with amazing views.
Because of its natural surroundings, Konnos Bay is also a great place to start hiking trails in Cape Greco National Forest Park.
Many Visitors to Konnos Bay also look for the Turtle Cove, where they MIGHT see some Turtles swimming. (The Turtles should NOT be disturbed though. Please respect them.
Most Water-sports at Konnos Bay are provided by Mikes Watersports.
Getting to Konnos Bay is actually quite easy because it sits right on the main artery between Ayia Napa and Protaras. The 101 and 102 buses are the “shuttles” of the coast, and they are your best friend for avoiding the tiny, crowded parking lot at the bay.

Getting to Konnos Bay: The 101 & 102 Loop
If you’re staying in the Famagusta district, you don’t need a rental car to reach the crystal-clear waters of Konnos. The OSEA bus service runs a constant loop that stops right at the top of the bay.
Which bus should you take?
The routes are identical, just heading in opposite directions:
Bus 101 (Clockwise): Use this if you are coming from Ayia Napa or Cape Greco heading toward Protaras/Paralimni.
Bus 102 (Counter-Clockwise): Use this if you are coming from Paralimni, Pernera, or Protaras center heading toward Ayia Napa.
Fast Facts for 2026:
Frequency: During the summer peak, buses typically run every 15–20 minutes.
Fare: A single daytime journey is €2.00. If you’re beach-hopping, grab a Day Pass for €6.00 for unlimited rides.
The Stop: Look for the “Konnos Beach” stop. It is located on the main road near the entrance to the Grecian Park Hotel.
The Walk: Once you hop off, it’s a scenic 5-minute walk down the winding hill (or the nature steps) to reach the sand.
Early morning or late afternoon visits are recommended to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and avoid peak crowds.
