5. Lara Beach
A unique protected corner of the Akamas Peninsula where turtles have been laying eggs for centuries. If you're lucky, you might see Lara's old-timers - 150-year-old green turtles. Here is soft pearl sand, devoid of any vegetation, slightly rippling turquoise sea and deep southern sky ... It is forbidden to put loungers and deck chairs on the long strip, in the laying season there are special frames protecting the little turtles from trampling. It's very quiet and peaceful.
