Lonely Planet review for Governor's Beach
Lemesos' tourist appeal starts 30km east of the city, at Governor's Beach. With a private bus serving the area from Lemesos, many decide to spend their day chilling out (or, more appropriately, baking) on the several coves of dark sand, contrasted by the white chalk cliffs behind them. There are a couple of restaurants here and at least one place to stay, though the overall ambience is slightly marred by the sight of the large Vasilikos power station looming 3km to the west.
Beach techno parties are frequent during the summer here, so keep an eye out for leaflets advertising such events across the island.

Relaxed and quiet beach
rebeccaa recommends this,
I was here in June and the beaches were not overcrowded, just perfect. Have lunch at one of the restaurants overlooking the beach then walk down and hire a sunbed to bake for a while. The beach is so nice with little coves all around. Just going for a walk in the shallow water to have a look around is beautiful.
