Hi gsj

the beaches were both to east and west of Limmasol. I saw some large signs saying that "Nudism" (their word) was prohibited but these were always on beaches were there was a taverna. However, i got the feeling that thongs were not seen as nudism and were quite accepatable. We also found some coves nearby where we could be nude but I would confidently say that if you're going to Cyprus then there is no need to pack any other swimwear other than thongs or g's. Hope this helps

just booked my holiday to cyprus for june. staying between coral bay and paphos. meant to be a long sandy coast and very relaxed, has anyone worn a thong on these beaches?

Re Coral Bay - driven past on several occasions but never stopped there. Long  beach with plenty of space for seclusion.  Where ever I have swam & sunbathed in Cyprus I have had no problem whatsoever in wearing minimal gear - usually an Interpsarta Naturiste or simila.  I don't think you will have any problem at all. Do what I do, pick your spot, strip off to not much & get on with it.  As ever I never do anything to draw attention to myself but if I fancy a stroll along the water's edge virtually naked that's what I do.

I'm just back from a beach holiday at Pissouri In Cyprus - mid way between Pathos & Limassol.  A quietish location. One good hotel, on the beach, various apartments & villas, & an ample supply of family run tavernas. Clientele mainly middle age, English French German & Russian. Sea temperature 20 C and unbroken sunshine.

I spent the entire time on the beach wearing nothing more than a minimal T back G-string - wonderful! The most I wore was a similar suit with a 4" back when using the hotel pool. Without doubt I was the briefest attired - and by quite a margin, apart from a few secretive nudists hidden at either end of the beach.

I took my daily walk along the beach - only wearing the T back - and had no problems whatsoever. In fact the only comment came from the water sports attendant who suggested that if I was under dressed he was over dressed.  I have got to the stage in life where I wear what I want on the beach, which is not very much and really do not bother about what others may think.

Hello,

I go in September for 12 days to North-Cyprus. The Kyrenia region.

But my question is :  Are there beaches where I can thonging ?

Maybe names of beaches ?

Nowbody ?

Thank you.

I,m not familiar with the northern part of Cyprus, but I am sure thonging would be fine on any beach there. Southern Cyprus (Larnaca region) was very easy going and thong friendly.

Just returned from Cyprus.  Went north to Big Sand and spent the whole day in Hom thong with no negative comments whatsoever.

However, I was the only thonger there male or female despite there being a sign warning that you may encounter nude bathers

A really good day with some really good tanlines to show for it, I've put photos in my profile images

Cyprus to be recommended!

 Nice tanlines. Too bad thoug, you were the only thonger.

Serious sun burn! Could you sit on your bum? Of course very nice tan line!

I'll be in Cyprus this March and I expect it will be just as open minded as everywhere else in Europe to thongs :-)
I'm there from 14th March on my own (male) and it's always nice to have company whether male or female.

I just get back from Cyprus.Thonging was very good! Easy on every beach, relaxed people.I saw no other men in thong but lots of speedos and women in thong or brazil.Recommend!

Trip report. I was in Cyprus in September, 2019. The weather was still warm. By mid-September, almost all of the rowdy party kids and families with school kids were gone. I was in Ayia Napa and went to the beach every day. The water was clean and clear. Almost all beaches are public land so you do not have to stay at the hotel to use any beach However you do have to pay to rent sunbeds and umbrellas. The charge was 2.50 Euros for each. I had on a thongs for most days. No problem at all at the hotel or beaches. Only a few (very few) females in thongs, and only one male (me) in a thong. Speedo were common for men, but not the majority. For women, thong were not common, but their bikinis were often 1/2 or 1/4 backs. Note that during the weekends, the beaches are packed with locals and there were many large family groups that seemed to have set up camp in any shade area behind the beaches. A few of these locals did react and did make some negative comments. These comments were not insulting, rather they were more joking or laughter. The tourists at the hotel did not even seem to notice my thonging. Most of the tourists were British, Russian, Northern European, or Eastern European. I did cross over to the North Cyprus to visit The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. The beaches were wider and less crowded than the south. The water was also clean and clear. The south is Greek and the north is Turkish and you will see differences in culture, food, and language. Note that Cyprus a separate country and not part go Greece and north Cyprus is also a separate country and not part of Turkey. Cyprus uses the Euro and North Cyprus uses the Turkish Lira. The North side is cheaper. The hotel I was at was full of tourists from Turkey. In fact most of the tourists were from Turkey. You can only fly in to North Cyprus from Turkey because the EU an the rest of the world does not recognize North Cyprus as a legal country. You can cross by land from the South to North and back, however. I did not thong in the North (perhaps I could have) because of the large number of Turkish tourists, who seem to be in larger family groups. Speedos, OK. If you rent a car (I did not) you could find out of town or out of hotel beaches where you could thong. There are private beaches in the North, and therefore subbeds and umbrellas are free on the beach at your hotel.
