Toxeftra Beach

Toxeftra Beach is a tranquil and secluded beach, often experiencing low traffic, making it an ideal location for those seeking a peaceful retreat. The beach is located near Avakas Gorge, making it a nice place to relax after a walk along the trail. It can be accessed by off-road vehicles over the Akamas, adding an element of adventure to the journey.

The beach is characterized by its large pebbles and lack of sand, which can make the surface hot to bare feet, especially in warmer weather. Footwear is recommended for those planning to enter the sea. The beach is also known for its high waves, which can be a spectacular sight, but also result in a strong current. This, along with the rocky terrain, can make swimming and snorkeling challenging.

One unique feature of Toxeftra Beach is its conservation restriction for turtles. Visitors are advised to check the warning signs for restrictions during certain times of the year. However, the presence of turtle protecting cages may vary.

The beach does not offer any amenities or supplies, so visitors are advised to bring their own food and drink. There is a medium-sized car park located close to the beach along the main road, providing convenient parking for visitors.
