Glapsides Beach

Glapsides is a sandy beach north of Famagusta on the eastern coast. The regional tourism source describes a long bay and shallow coastal water. Its setting makes it a beach destination rather than a stop inside the old city.

Plan the visit

Choose the beach as the main part of the outing and arrange the return to town separately. Shallow water in a general description is not a guarantee of safe conditions on the day. No current lifeguard service or winter beach facilities are asserted.
