Limassol
Beach breakAll levels
The long beach south of Limassol port, on the Akrotiri peninsula.
The season runs from November to March, with waves that usually last a day or two. The surf community is small and concentrated in Limassol and Paphos. The water is among the warmest in Europe: 17 °C in winter, so a 3/2 is enough.
