Colored by the sapphire waters of the Mediterranean, Makenzy (Mackenzie)  Beach is a refreshing break from the busy city life.

The story of the name of the coast began around the end of the 1940s when a Scottish resident of Larnaka named McKenzie, married to a Greek Cypriot from Larnaka, built for himself a home in this seaside area. Since then, everyone has begun to call the coast as "Makenzy (Mackenzie) ".
