Akamas (Greek: ), is a promontory and cape at the northwest extremity of Cyprus, which Ptolemy described as a thickly wooded headland, divided into two summits rising towards the north. (Ptol. v. 14 § 1; see also Plin. Book 5 § 35 ).

Up until the year 2000, the peninsula was used by the British Army and Navy for military exercises and as a firing range. Under the 1960 Treaty of Establishment, the British army was allowed to use the Akamas for exercises for up to 70 days a year.

At the southern end of the peninsula is the town of Pegeia and on its northeast side the town of Polis.
