Cyprus’ beaches may not be sandy, but they’re beautiful nonetheless. Limassol, Paphos, Ayia Napa and Larnaca are the main beach resorts. On the road connecting Paphos and Limassol, you’ll find the Petra tou Rominou sea stack, where Greek goddess of love Aphrodite is said to have been born. Paphos is known for its beach and nightlife, but more cultural attractions include mosaics dating back to the 3rd Century, the ancient Ottoman fortress of Paphos Castle and the Tombs of the Kings. Elsewhere on the island, Larnaca is home to a grand fort and an archaeological museum.
In Limassol, spend the day shopping in style on Makarios Avenue’s high-end boutiques and perusing Agiou Andreou Street’s for locally produced Lefkaritika lace, handmade jewellery and ceramics. As night falls, feast on seafood and Champagne at one of the town’s fine-dining restaurants – La Maison Fleurie and Vivaldi by Mavrommatis are two of the best on the island.
Capital city Nicosia was previously split into two parts – the Greek and Turkish sides. Explore the Old City on the Greek side and admire the collections in the Byzantine Museum and the Archaeological Museum. On the Turkish side of the city, there’s Lusignan Palace and St Sophia Cathedral. Pyxida serves great seafood and Greek cuisine, while No Reservations Restaurant is a contemporary venue that serves a nine-course degustation menu.
Often overlooked are the Troodos Mountains and the Byzantine churches and Greek Orthodox monasteries nestled within them. Hike 6,000 ft to Mount Olympus and take advantage of the fresh air and epic scenery. In the winter, the mountains can be capped with snow – a stunning sight against the sunny blue skies. At the top of Mount Olympus you’ll find the only ski resort in Cyprus, while to the west, Cedar Valley is another beautiful place for walking.
