Beaches
Polis - The sea near Polis Chryssochous offers a variety of beaches. Dark sand, rocks and pebbles stretch endlessly eastwards towards Pomos and westwards towards Latsi. -Latsi: The beaches of Latsi are ideal for families with children. You can rent sunbeds and umbrellas and in Latsi itself is a nice playground directly at the beach.
Lara Beach - This is not an ordinary beach as sunbeds and umbrellas are not allowed there. The reason for this is a very important project for the protection of the seaturtle caretta-caretta, which in August lays its eggs in the hot sand. Special wardens cover the eggs which are hidden deep in the sand with a special net in order to protect them from enemies such as foxes and birds. Every nest is registered and when the turtle babies hatch, they are counted and watched as they emerge in to the endless sea.
