Between the Blue and the Green: Unveiling the Untamed Nature of Cyprus
2. The Turquoise Fringe: Coastline and Sea Caves
The coastline of Cyprus is defined by more than just sandy beaches; it is a dramatic display of geology. The eastern coast, particularly around Cape Greco, is famous for its intricate system of sea caves and natural bridges carved by the waves over millennia. These limestone cathedrals offer some of the clearest waters in Europe, teeming with marine life. Further west, the coastline turns wilder, with the legendary Aphrodite’s Rock (Petra tou Romiou) rising from the foam, marking the mythological birthplace of the goddess of love and beauty.
