The sandy beaches tend to be at the Eastern end of the island (Nissi beach in Ayia Napa, Fig Tree Bay in Protaras, the smaller quiter beaches along the coast at Pernera up to Kapparis)

As per Askcys post really. My favourite snorkelling is at Cape Greko...

That said, I don't go in the sea until its a bit warmer than April/May

Last summer I visited countries in Asia. I went to Malaysia, Indonesia, and Philippines and visit some of the beaches there. I enjoyed everything about these countries. The weather is hot and perfect. I can say that the best beaches can be found in these countries. If you are looking for adventures, if you love the water and the sunshine and wants to experience new things then these places are the best place to go to. I can still feel white sands on my feet until now.

Thanks everyone! Will check some of those beaches out. TravellingCheri, we've already 'done' the Far East extensively and loved the beaches there, but now want to explore a bit closer to home.

Awk, i wish u will have a good time..wish i can do that soon.. miss this
