Overview
Located just one kilometre east of the centre of Ayia Napa, the 250-metre long beach of Glyki Nero is a beautiful coastal stretch that reaches to the impressive Ayia Napa Sea Caves, and continues west to the picturesque harbour.
The beach is separated into stretches called A and B. Glyki Nero Beach is a designated dog-friendly beach until December 31, 2018.
