Dogs-Only Beach

If you think dog parks are cool, the dogs on Cyprus have their own beach! After complaints that dogs had no place to swim and cool off in the hot weather, officials designated part of the beach for dog walking and swimming in the ocean. Now locals and travelers to the popular vacation spot have someplace to take their pets.

Legend has it that shepherds used to take their flocks to the same area to cool off.
