Protaras is a purpose built tourist resort and has an excellent choice of restaurants, bars and nightclubs as well as many souvenir shops. The long sandy beach is perfect for sun bating and you don't have to venture far for lunch with tavernas and restaurants lining the sea front.
There are numerous water sports available from the beach including para-sailing. Just outside of Protaras you will find beautiful cliffs and secluded coves to explore.
Protaras is popular with families and couples and also groups of friends who like the easy access to the bright lights and loud music of Ayia Napa which is just 10 minutes away. There are some fabulous hotels in Protoras with everything from 5 star luxury to more basic self catering apartments.
Protaras in Cyprus is a lovely resort sure to appeal to many but with so many travel companies around how do you know you are getting the best prices for your holiday. We have compared hotel prices in Protaras using high street and internet based holiday companies and one of our favourites has to be Thomson. Some of their most popular Protaras hotels include the 4 star Blue Water Bay Villas and the 4 star Golden Coast Beach Hotel which offer an excellent standard of accommodation as well as great value for money. |
We think this resort will only get more popular with time and more and more holidaymakers discover it's beauty. One highlight of this area are the beaches which are much quieter than the busier and more well known Cyprus resorts although we don't think Protaras will remain a secret for long. Couples and families will enjoy the quiet pace of this area by day and the entertainment and restaurants on offer by night.
