In The Know: Cyprus

Holidays in Cyprus are available all year round with flights to Paphos and Larnaca from most UK airports and are as popular as ever. Cyprus is a land of many contrasts from the dramatic Toordos Mountains in the centre of the island to the beautiful coastline.

Cyprus has been popular for many thousands of years, Mark Antony once gave Cleopatra the island as a gift it was also home to the legendary Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love. Holidays in Cyprus have something for everyone, quality hotels and spa's to relax in, loads of ancient historical sites to explore, good nightlife and a beautiful coastline.

Old and new sit side by side, take Paphos - the most popular resort, where you can be wandering through the old town or visiting the castle and within minutes you can be sitting in a nice bar or doing water sports! The main nightlife on Cyprus is in Ayia Napa which is on par with Ibiza, there are loads of bars, restaurants and clubs that are open until the early morning. Resorts such as Limassol and Paphos have a good range of nightlife too.

Excursions on Cyprus are in plentiful supply. Trips to Nicosia the capital are popular where you can see the "no mans land line" that seperate Greek Cyprus and the Turkish controlled Northern Cyprus. The Troodos Mountains offer fantastic scenery with a cool breeze and are always a good day out too.
