Fig Tree Bay, which takes its name after a decades-old solitary fig tree in the area, features an uninhabited islet in the sea within swimming distance, an exciting adventure for those who want to see it up close.

The scenic sandy beach in the resort of Protaras with crystal clear waters was also among the most photographed beaches in the world on Instagram in 2018.
Fig Tree ranked at number 20 globally in 2018, while Australia's Whitehaven was still the most photographed beach on the social media app.
