Cyclops Sea Cave

The Cyclops Sea Cave is located in Protaras and can be accessed by a path from my favorite beach, Konnos.  We had seen the signs for the trail before, but today decided to actually see for ourselves what it was like.  The weather was the perfect temperature for a short hike, much better than it would be under the blazing summer sun.  Not a lot of shade trees around.  The hike is about two and a half kilometers each way on a semi-rocky path.  The kids and Demetris all chose a walking stick before we left.  The scenery is beautiful as it follows the coastline with many interesting plants along the way.  The cave is somewhat small, but large enough for us to walk through.  Actually, Demetris and I couldn't stand up straight in most of it, but still fun to look at it.  Alex and Sofia walked both ways without complaint and were rewarded at the end with a small piece of chocolate.  Those little legs did a good job of climbing on rocks and navigating the narrow parts of the path.
