A visit to Muji Chinese is also worthwhile, if not for the food but the great views of the mountains. If you’re on a family break, head to Ithaki Amusement Park where you’ll find mini-dodgems, mini-golf and a small soft-play area. There are also a couple of supermarkets in the area should you need any essentials.

Lady's Mile
Located on the edge of town, Ladies Mile is one of Limassol’s best kept secrets. You can walk undisturbed across the soft golden sand, taking in the natural beauty of this special beach. Owing to its location, the beach has a lack of natural shade which makes it a firm favourite with sun worshipers. Cool off by taking a dip in the refreshing waters, which also provide safe swimming conditions for everyone to enjoy. It’s this calm sea which attracts a number of daring windsurfers to the beach each year, while you’ll also find plenty of other watersports on offer.
