Fishing by the shore

The Limassol coastline near the city center as well as by the countryside offers dozens of beaches and small fishing harbors, that are ideal for people interested in surf fishing.

The docks that are located along the Limassol coastline are some of the most popular destinations for (mainly amateur) fishermen in Limassol. They are easily accessible and welcome fishermen both at night and during the day, offering accommodating benches and railings to lean against while waiting for the fish to bite.

The long, open beaches with a relatively shallow depth and mostly sandy bottom attract fishermen every season. Those seeking for secluded and quiet spots, resort to the area west of the Limassol Marina, towards Karnagio, the beach of Parekklisia,Governor's Beach and the rocks of Agios Georgios Alamanos, the fishing port of Moni, east of the city and the fishing port of Akrotiri, in the west.

Sea bream, sea bass, sand steenbras, and even smaller fish are the types usually caught in the Limassol waters. Sea bream is typically found during the sunny days of winter.

Sea bass can be found year-round, though winter fishermen usually have better luck. Sea bass is generally found in harbors, or in beaches that are located near small or large harbors or near rivers.

Of course, the operation of fish farms in the Limassol waters helps increase their population, and the periods during which the fish escape the farms into the open water are always a cause for celebration for the city’s fishermen.
