Pezounospylioi (Filias) beach

One of the most beautiful and at the same time the least well known beaches in the area. The beach is hidden under a cliff, without any facilities and give the impression that one has found a hidden treasure.

The Pezounospylioi beach is located to the right side of the Asprokremmos beach in Protaras. To get to the particular beach one must walk quite a lot.

To the west of the beach, at around 70 kilometres from the shore there is a large limestone cave.

The presence of the caves and the population of the pigeons which inhabited the area also gave it its name.
