Overview
Located close to Pentakomo village, about ten kilometres east of the main hotel district of Limassol, the famous Governor’s Beach is one of the most popular coastal areas of the island, and is characterized by chalk-white rocks that extend into the blue sea.
The beach consists of two parts: Governor’s, with its dark, sandy beach, and Kalymnos, which lies about 200 meters to the west, made up by a long, narrow stretch of sandy coastline.
Both beaches have calm, clean waters and offer fantastic nature walks to be enjoyed by the whole family.
Facilities on the beach include toilets, showers, changing rooms, sun beds, umbrellas, a children’s playground, beach cafes and a nearby camping site (Kalymnos). There are also several traditional restaurants, known for their fresh fish.
Lifeguards with lifesaving equipment and first aid services are stationed at the beach from April – October, 09:00 – 17:00, and until 18:00 during the summer season. Access is easy by car via the A1 motorway, and the area has car-parking facilities available. The beach also offers disabled access.
