Cypriots are proving to be foresighted once again for their Clean Monday festivities, on March 18.
Some individuals have preemptively secured their spots in the Cape Greco area, reserving space by cordoning off sections with ribbons.
The proactive reservations caught public attention when Green Party MP Charalambos Theopemptou criticised the practice on social media.

Στην περιοχή Κάβο Γκρέκο χρησιμοποιούν κορδέλες για να κρατήσουν το χώρο που θα πάνε τη καθαρή Δευτέρα!!!
Individuals used ribbons to stake out territory for their family outings on Clean Monday, a tradition falling nearly two weeks away.
The incident prompted action from the Ministry of Agriculture, necessitating an intervention to uphold public access.
Officials from the Forestry Department were dispatched to the location to dismantle the makeshift reservations, ensuring the area remains open and accessible for all.
