E

ven for the most discerning visitor Cyprus has a range of places and sites to see and enjoy, whether for families and groups on holiday or residents looking to discover something new. There are popular and secluded beaches along the coast, mountain getaways to cool off in, and ancient monuments to visit, while there are clubs, bars and restaurants to enjoy. And Cyprus has become a venue for

chart-topping bands and celebrity DJs playing to large crowds. The retail scene has also vastly improved, with Paphos, Limassol and Nicosia now accommodating state-of-the-art shopping malls with all the best brands, eateries and cinemas. Almost everywhere, you’ll find that Cyprus has really improved in terms of both cutting-edge accommodation and fine dining.

And Cyprus’ most compelling attractions only lie a day-trip away, whether its Limassol foothills for a wine tour, the capital Nicosia for culture, Ayia Napa beaches or a trip to Paphos zoo. For those among you who have a yacht, there is no better place dock than Limassol’s new marina. Ancient Curium, outside Limassol, is a popular attraction, as are the mosaics at Paphos. And the Troodos Mountains, rising to

nearly 2,000 metres north-west of Limassol, shelter a score of exquisite, frescoed lateByzantine churches. For those with a sense of underwater adventure, there is scuba diving off Larnaca at one of the Mediterranean’s best wreck dives - the Zenobia. With a maximum depth of 43 metres, not all of the Zenobia is for beginners; but there are shallower shipwrecks, plus reefs and caves, nearby.
