Please note that due to Covid-19 hygiene rules, you will need to provide your own snorkelling gear. This can be bought at most tourist shops around resort.
The coastline around Ayia Napa and Protaras is excellent for snorkelling. As well as an abundance of rock formations and caves, there are many species of marine life including turtles, lion fish and up to 20 more types of fish and sea creatures. Visibility is excellent and the water is warm for most of the year.
We enter from Glyki Nero beach and snorkel east along the Agia Napa Sea Caves, including Lovers' Bridge, and back. If the sea is calm (it usually is before eleven during the summer season), we snorkel inside two of the sea caves. Then we snorkel at either Konnos beach or Green Bay and hope for sea turtle spotting which is very likely in summer.
Usually we have time to visit a third snorkelling spot. Usually we go to Blue Lagoon, for the scenic environment. Other possible options are Green Bay and Crystal Springs, for more biodiverse marine life.
