This huge waterspout wreaked havoc along the coastline of a popular tourist hotspot sending beach furniture and other debris flying into the air.
Footage shows the initial stages of the twister in Ayia Napa, Cyprus, as it formed a long, thin column above the water.
It quickly gained momentum and developed into a larger cyclone-style twister and, as its speed intensified, it became wider and faster.
Eventually, it makes its way towards the beach sending beach furniture into the air and combining the water with sand as tourists fled the area.
Government data suggest around 1,000,000 UK tourists travel to Cyprus each year with Ayia Napa being one of the most popular destinations.
