Cape Greco was designated as a National Forest Park in 1993. It is a relatively unspoilt area with great natural beauty which changes and offers something different each season. It is an oasis of tranquility nestled midway between the busy resorts of Ayia Napa and Protaras.

The uniqueness of the area is not only due to its natural beauty but also to the fact that it offers a wide range of interests such as swimming, diving, towed parachute, fishing, rowing, cycling, riding, climbing, airsports and hiking.

The vegetation is dominated by coastal shrubs of which the most frequent observed species is Juniperus phoenicea and plants such as chrysanthemums, wind onions, poppies, anemones, mainly in spring time. There are about 300 plant species in the park.
