Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This location is not broadly shared aamd known amongst tourists which is shame and a wasted opportunity.
It is a bit hidden away, but easy to reach from Limassol, or only a small detour from the road between Limassol and Paphos.
Stunning views of the cliffs, some nice bars and restaurants, and good waves in the water when it is a bit windy to kitesurf.
Right next to it on top of the hill there a great archaeological park (also highly recommend) which also has an amazing view of the beach and cliffs

Visited here to cool off after a trip to Kourion Archealogical Park.
The beach itself is not that impressive, quite stony and there was some building work going on whilst we were there. But it was quiet and what made it stand out was the sea, we spent ages wave jumping. Probably not enough to surf, but great fun.
I wouldn't go out of my way to come here, but if you are in the area its worth an hour so or of your time.

I come here to relax here before my sunset visit of the ancient Kourion. Not eye-catching but not bad. Mostly sandy beach with some pebbles, quite long with enough space to park the car. For me the water was too shallow, if you want good swimming you have to go far away into the sea. However the water was clear. So it is recommend for families with children. There is a big restaurant, changing room, and beds to be rent. Quite beach if you relax and spend some time before or after visiting the ancient Kourion.

My not be the best place for sunbathing because of the rocks, but the view is beautiful and is worth at least a small visit if you are staying in Cyprus long-term.

Children like this beach because the sea tends to be rough and they can jump the waves or try to surf.
Now that the far restaurant has closed it is easy to sit by the sea and not suffer from too many chairs all over the place.

Went there as a hidden gem from the map. Plenty of cafe's and restaurants to eat - Beware of the high but warm winds and ensure you put plenty of sun tan on as was burned quite a bit. Sunbeds are 7.50 Euro's.

Like almost everywhere in Cyprus, free parking and cheap sunbed and parasol hire. We enjoyed a really nice afternoon here, with good swimming. Nice and clean with facilities close by.

Kourion beach is our favorite beach in Cyprus. We have come here regularly over the last 10 years. The beach is mostly sandy, with only some small pebbles and you can enter the water without having to wear shoes to protect against the rocks (which is rare on the Cyprus beaches). The water is shallow, with often nice waves and a good place to swim or throw a ball around. The beach chairs and parasols are for rent and not expensive. The only negative is that the beach gets very crowded in the weekends.

Visited this beach the other day and was very disappointed. They have now covered it in socially distanced chairs. You cannot sit anywhere near them in case you are too close. However when visiting the sunshine cafe for coffee a group arrived that was placed so close to us they were bumping our chairs as they moved. That is before many tourists arrive so I dread what it will be like if/when they do. We don’t plan on visiting again any time soon.

The ancient site is worth every step in the heat!!! It's beautiful and the site will warm your heart as the sun warms your body.
The warm isn't as warm as the end of the summer but once you're in you'll be fine! Beach does get busy but it's huge, plenty of room to make your own space comfortably and the restaurants serve amazing seafood.
