Fig Tree Bay, Beach in Protaras, Cyprus.

Fig Tree Bay is a 500-metre sandy beach in Protaras, Cyprus, with pale tan sand and a low blue floating barrier marking the swimming area. Blue umbrellas and loungers stand in rows, with a few multicoloured ones near the centre. An uninhabited islet covered in low local vegetation lies offshore, reachable by swimming through shallow water and sheltering the rest of the beach.

The beach area was developed with improvements over time, and in 2010 an ancient Greek tomb was discovered during construction work. This find revealed that the region had been inhabited and used by people in early periods.

The bay takes its name from the fig trees growing close to the coast. The uninhabited islet offshore, covered in low local vegetation, shelters the swimming area and is reached by wading through shallow water. Water-skiing, windsurfing and parasailing are offered along the 500-metre beach.

Access is free, while sunbeds and umbrellas are rented. A municipal car park is a short walk away. Lifeguards and lifesaving equipment are on duty from April to October, 9am to 6pm. The 500-metre beach has a low blue floating barrier marking the swimming area, and an uninhabited islet offshore shelters the water.

Peter Frampton's 1972 album Wind of Change includes a track titled "Fig Tree Bay", named after this beach in Protaras. The song is the only known pop-music link to the bay, which otherwise draws visitors for its sand and shallow water.
