Beach in Larnaca occupied, bathers denied access
Original source: Philenews

Wooden structures and motorhomes have been illegally placed on a beach next to the Larnaca Nautical Club, effectively turning it into a private area. Larnaca Mayor Andreas Vyras said many complaints have been received about people being prevented from swimming, as well as unsanitary conditions and litter. A similar situation was cleared in 2024, but now authorities are unable to act due to a jurisdictional dispute: the district administration refuses to intervene, claiming the land is private, although the law requires removal of structures within 92 meters of the shoreline.
