Long Beach Resort – Coastal Serenity and Mediterranean Comfort in Trikomo, Northern Cyprus
The Region: Trikomo and the Long Beach Coastline
Trikomo, also known as Yeni İskele, is located on the southeastern coastline of Northern Cyprus. Over the past decade, this once-sleepy coastal village has transformed into one of the most attractive and fast-developing resort areas in the country. Its growing popularity is largely due to its natural beauty, convenient location, and proximity to the stunning golden shores of Long Beach.
Long Beach stretches for several kilometers along the eastern coast of Cyprus, offering one of the island’s most impressive sandy beaches. The beach features soft golden sand, shallow crystal-clear waters, and a gentle sea breeze that makes it ideal for swimming, sunbathing, jogging, or cycling. The beach is both child-friendly and safe, making it especially popular among families. Along the coast, well-maintained promenades, playgrounds, shaded picnic areas, and wooden piers offer an excellent balance of leisure and outdoor activities.
The area surrounding Long Beach is quiet and peaceful, but with all essential services within easy reach. Supermarkets, pharmacies, local markets, banks, and beach cafés line the roads within a short walk or drive. A few beach clubs and restaurants provide dining and entertainment options along the water’s edge, while the main town of Trikomo has more traditional tavernas and shops. The historic city of Famagusta is approximately 15 minutes away by car and offers a wide variety of cultural and historical attractions, including the Venetian city walls, Othello Castle, and the ghost town of Varosha.
The resort area is also conveniently located for day trips to the wild Karpaz Peninsula, known for its untouched beaches, free-roaming donkeys, and the Apostolos Andreas Monastery. Whether you're looking to unwind on the sand, discover ancient ruins, or explore sleepy villages, Trikomo and the Long Beach coast provide an ideal setting for a Mediterranean escape.
