destroying wild flowers

A little past the pier at Protaras, a little sandy bay, unspoilt. Or it was. It now looks like a builders yard. Sand has been dumped onto the beach.

Today, what remains of the dead wild flowers was being scraped away, first by a digger, then by a workman.

Usually in May, flowers along the path.

Fig Tree Bay

A coast path runs from Pernera to Paralimni.

Along the way, seats, shade, look-out points.

This one overlooks the bay at Protaras and Fig Tree Bay.

This time of year, the cliffs should be ablaze with spring flowers. All appear to have been destroyed.

Fig Tree Bay has been brutalised, a once attractive little bay, ugly and souless.

Along the route of the path, ugly bars have erupted, that despoil the landscape and add noise pollution.
