Description of the attraction
Park Kavo Greco is located in the eastern part of the famous Cape Greco (Ayia Napa) and covers an area of more than 385 hectares. The main purpose of creating the park, which was declared a National Reserve, was to preserve the unique nature and landscape of this part of the island, as well as to attract even more tourists to Cyprus.
On the territory of Cavo Greco, over 400 species of various plants now grow, including 14 unique species that can be found only in this place and 14 more that are extremely rare. In addition, the park boasts an excellent collection of over 30 orchids.
The park is famous for its juniper groves and beautiful views of the sea, which in that part of the island has an amazing azure color. This cape is ideal for diving, fishing and spearfishing - moray eels and octopuses, needlefish and sea bass are found in the sea off the coast.
Cavo Greco is very popular among tourists - this place is literally created for long hiking and cycling trips, for which special trails were equipped there. In addition, the park also has separate viewing and picnic areas, and even a tourist office.
So, you can visit the ruins of the temple of Aphrodite and visit the Cyclops cave. But to get to the caves and grottoes in a huge limestone rock on the coast itself, you have to take a boat. These beautiful caves-palaces were formed thanks to the waves of the surf, which for many centuries beat against the rocks. Also, the famous two-kilometer trail of Aphrodite runs through the territory of the Cavo Greco Park.
