Peyia Sea Caves & Edro III Shipwreck
Wave-cut limestone ledges and caves north of Coral Bay, where the rusting cargo ship Edro III has sat on the rocks since 2011.

The coastline at Sea Caves is a sculpted shelf of white rock, full of arches, blowholes and hidden coves. In December 2011 the Sierra Leone-flagged cargo ship Edro III ran aground just offshore in bad weather, and it has stayed there ever since, slowly rusting into a photographer's favourite.
A clifftop path links several viewpoints. On calm days you can snorkel in the clear rock pools.
Good to know
The ledges are sharp and slippery near the water, and the wreck is unsafe. Admire it from the shore and do not swim out to it.
