Riccos beach bar

Set right on the beach in Geroskipou, Riccos Beach Bar is a laid-back, old-school hangout shaded by large trees, where you can unwind to the sound of the waves and take in sea views. It draws plenty of locals and visitors alike, and has a rustic charm thanks to the friendly animals that roam the grounds, from cats and dogs to chickens, ducks and even a peacock. The English-speaking team keeps the atmosphere welcoming and casual, with simple drinks and an iced coffee that guests often call out as a highlight.

Families appreciate the small playground and the generous natural shade that keeps things cool in the heat of the day. Stop by for an easygoing drink after a beach walk or settle in under the trees and watch the coastline go by. Note that at busy times service can be slow, and fallen fruit from the trees may create a bit of mess underfoot.
