Blue Lagoon

Blue Lagoon is a bay on the northwestern coast of Cyprus with crystal-clear water and fine white sand forming shallow natural pools. Rocky cliffs frame the shoreline, creating sheltered sections where the water remains calm and inviting for swimmers.

The Akamas Peninsula, where this bay sits, was settled during Roman times and holds archaeological remnants from that era. For centuries, the nearby village of Latchi has used these waters as a fishing ground.

Local fishermen from Latchi village maintain traditional fishing practices in the waters surrounding the Blue Lagoon, preserving maritime customs.

The best time to visit is on calm days when water visibility is excellent and conditions feel safe. Access is mainly by boat tour from the nearby village, with services running throughout the year.

The water shifts in color between deep blue and turquoise depending on the sun's angle and time of day. These color changes result from the white sandy bottom and the mineral content of the water.
