Highlights
  • Bridge of Lovers - The point where lovers „lock up“ their love! Cape Greco is home to one of the most amazing and well-known natural bridges. We call it the Bridge of Lovers. It is a masterpiece of nature. This special place is very popular because of the romance it exudes.

The bridge of the lovers or the bridge of love is very beautiful and one of the most romantic places in all of Cyprus. Visits to the bridge from newlyweds and couples has become almost a tradition. Sometimes wedding ceremonies also take place here.

The Bridge of Lovers is a natural rock arch bridge whose edge juts out from an elevated coastal plateau into the crystal clear, turquoise and emerald sea. The bridge was formed by natural processes, entirely without human help. Legend has it that a wish will come true if you kiss your beloved while standing in the middle of the bridge’s arch.

  • Sea Caves - The sea caves in this region are a breathtaking natural setting. Here in the Cape Greco National Park there are impressive rock bridges, hidden caves and tunnels. The sea caves are not only beautiful to look at, but extend up to 80 metres underground and are partly completely under water. At low tide, you can explore this wild piece of nature on foot, and when the sea is calm, you can also swim, snorkel or dive in the crystal-clear water. According to legend, the caves were used by pirates to store booty. Of course, the cave-like tunnels, bridges and rock formations served as perfect hiding places
  • Cyclops Cave - The Cyclops‘ Cave is the legendary lair of the mythical man-eating one-eyed Cyclops Polyphemus, who captured Odysseus and some of his men on their way home from the Trojan War. Odysseus eventually blinded the Cyclops with a wooden stake and escaped, but lost some of his men in the process.

Visiting the Cyclops Cave provides a unique opportunity to combine nature and legend. It is an underground cave that is not too difficult to explore. The surroundings of the cave are also impressive, with a short walk along the coast to admire both the landscape and the flora, which consists of endemic plants such as the acacia trees, coastal buckthorn, prickly burnets, juniper trees and coastal buckthorn.

  • Cape Greco National Forest Park - Bridge of Koraka
    Here you can literally feel the magic of nature!
    The natural bridge of Koraka is the largest natural bridge in Cyprus. It is one of the most romantic and inspiring places in the area.

The Forestry Department has fenced off the area around the bridge as the rocky bridge is in danger of collapsing due to the waves and the deep roots of the shrubs attacking the rocks. Locals and tourists can still visit the area despite the fencing to admire the magic of nature and its beauty.

A registered trademark and symbol of the entire Cape Greco Peninsula, it is a beautiful bridge that must be seen!

Chapel Agioi Anargiroi
This beautiful church, built on the edge of a cliff, is dedicated to Agioi Anargyroi. The church dates from the 1950s. Legend has it that just below this site is a cave where the saints Anargyros (Kostas and Damianos) practised.
In this cave was an image or icon of Agioi Anargyron, which after some time was thought to be lost.

The Wonders of Eastern Cyprus - A great half day trip with our very well informed driver/guide Juergen. We visited the beautiful Sea Caves and Bridge of Lovers the Cyclop Caves, the highest viewing point at Cape Greco and a few other places of interest. The different shades of blue of the Mediterranean Sea were breathtaking. Jurgen was courteous, very helpful and entertaining. Assisted us in every way including taking photos. Gave us good advice on restaurants too! Would advise others to travel to Cyprus in cooler weather as at this time it was very hot.
