In addition to the burgeoning club scene, there are well developed water sports operations that provide a range of activities, including water-skiing, windsurfing and scuba diving. Ayia Napa hotels are all within easy reach of a good choice of high quality white sand beaches, and all of the beaches in Ayia Napa are Blue Flag standard, a European award which is bestowed for cleanliness and the range of facilities on offer. The most popular of these beaches, and one of the busiest during the peak season, is Nissi beach, a favourite with the young clubbing set. Nearby is the longest beach in Ayia Napa, Harbour Beach, which is also known as Limanaki or Pantahou beach. Harbour beach is more geared up for family entertainment, and offers a more laid back and relaxing time at the seaside.

Ayia Napa has much to offer in the way of cuisine, with traditional Mediterranean ingredients such as fig, olive, and aubergine combining with the spices and cooking techniques of the Middle East to create a culinary experience that is both unique and delicious. In particular, the kebabs are a far cry from the late night offerings that ...

Venturing out from your Ayia Napa hotels, there is much else to see on the island of Cyprus, making it well worth considering renting a car for a few days to allow for a spot of touring. The island has literally thousands of years of history, and in Greek mythology, is the purported birthplace of the Greek Goddess of Love, Aphrodite. Indeed, Aphrodites Rock is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Cyprus, a striking geological feature arising from a picturesque bay that legend has it was the exact spot that Aphrodite was born. There are many other places of interest bequeathed to the island as the legacy of Ancient Greece that are just waiting to be discovered. That is, if you are able to surface during sunlight hours and venture out of Ayia Napa. This guide to tourist destinations in Ayia Napa was written by Bonny Kominek.
