Standing at the crossroads of three continents
Cyprus has a vibrant history, a perfect climate and the warmest welcome in
the Mediterranean. It has been a British playground for many years offering
the perfect combination of relaxation, water sports and exciting exploration
along its beautiful coastline, for Northern Cyprus too, has its share of
rich archeological sites and medieval castles. It enjoys over 300 days of
uninterrupted sunshine, clear blue unpolluted seas, the beauty of an
unspoiled landscape and uncrowded beaches.
Add to this the friendliness and hospitality of the people, wonderfully
varied cuisine and you have the perfect recipe for a truly idyllic holiday.
Whether you are a lover of nature, an archaeologist, a keen walker, a water
sportsman or simply a sun-worshipper this little island is the ideal spot
for you.
Along the northern coast stretch the pine-clad Kyrenia Mountains sloping
gently to the warm and tranquil waters of the Mediterranean. There are many
good restaurants in the area, and picturesque Kyrenia harbour is the place
to be in the evening. Famagusta in the east is famed for its endless sandy
beaches and crystal-clear waters. It will come as no surprise that according
to legend this island was given to Cleopatra by Julius Ceasar as a token of
his love!
