Serving the day’s catch by the water, a short walk from Ayia Napa harbour. That reputation is why Karousos Beach Restaurant earned its place among our curated picks for Ayia Napa.
It holds 4 stars from 515 Google reviews (checked September 2026).
The thing to order: fresh fish by the water. A step up in polish from the taverna scene while keeping the island’s produce-first cooking — expect fresh fish, grilled meats and Mediterranean plates done properly.
Karousos Beach Restaurant is in Ayia Napa harbour area. Ayia Napa packs a lot into a small grid: the medieval monastery square at its heart, the bar strip fanning out around it, Nissi Avenue running west towards the famous beach, and the harbour and sculpture-park headland to the south. Nothing in town is more than a few minutes apart by car. Dinner from 7.30–8pm is the sweet spot; in July and August a reservation saves you a wait almost anywhere with a terrace.
