Ayia Thekla beach, Sandy beach in Sotira, Cyprus
The beach features golden sand stretching along the Mediterranean coast with blue waters meeting a curved shoreline next to whitewashed buildings and palms.
The beach received its name from Saint Thekla, a Christian saint who influenced local religious practices during the early development of Christianity in Cyprus.
The small white and blue chapel near the beach serves as a popular location for traditional Cypriot wedding ceremonies throughout the summer months.
The beach maintains Blue Flag certification, offering rental equipment, showers, changing rooms, parking facilities, and multiple restaurants within walking distance.
Natural rock formations create small protected pools along the beach, making it suitable for families with children to swim safely in calmer waters.
