The Big 7 Travel list catalogues beaches from all over the world. First is Zlatni rat beach (Golden Horn Beach) in Croatia and second is Whitehaven Beach in Australia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fig Tree Bay is considered the most popular beach in Protaras.<\/strong> The beach is named after the fig tree at the back of the beach, which the conquerors brought with them from the east in the 17th century. Golden sand, organized beach and people enjoying their swim along its entire length. This is the picture you see when you visit it. The crystal clear waters and fine golden sand have made this beach one of the best in Europe. It is of no coincidence that, in addition to the other distinctions it has been awarded, one of them is the Blue Flag for its excellent water quality.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16641 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/%CE%9A%CF%8D%CF%80%CF%81%CE%BF%CF%82-%CF%80%CE%B1%CF%81%CE%B1%CE%BB%CE%AF%CE%B1.jpg\" alt=\"Cyprus: The beach voted 3rd best in the world1\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Photo Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/politis.com.cy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>politis.com.cy<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The little secret of the beach is a nearby uninhabited islet easily accessible by swimming in shallow waters.
