Death of 80-Year-Old at Dasoudi Beach: Concerns About Lifeguard Scheduling

August 21, 2025

On Thursday morning, an 80-year-old Greek Cypriot was found dead on Dasoudi beach in Limassol. The elderly man was discovered unresponsive by other bathers who witnessed the tragic incident. Lifeguards start their duties at 10:00 AM, while many swimmers are already at the beach as early as 6:30 AM. This raises concerns about the need to change the lifeguard schedule. So far this season, five deaths have been reported on Limassol's beaches.
