Information |
| As
an independent nation Cyprus has
existed for less than a
generation. But its history
stretches back much further.
This sun-kissed Mediterranean
isle has come under the control
of various rulers including the
Romans, Venetians, Genoese and
British imperialists, who have
all laid claim to this
birthplace of Aphrodite, the
Goddess of love. These days,
however, if there's any
conquering to be done, it's
being done by tourists. Since
the 1960s the agreeable Cypriot
climate and its stunning
landscape have combined to
attract thousands of trippers
every year.
Birthplace
of Aphrodite, Cyprus has a
fascinating heritage from Roman
and British influence and offers
a glorious combination of
sunshine and sightseeing. Behind
the cosmopolitan resorts of the
south coast rise the Troodos
Mountains, punctuated by
Byzantine monasteries and
ancient villages where a more
traditional way of life can
still be found. Whether you are
a first time visitor or a Cyprus
connoisseur, this is a great
destination offering all year
round activities, excellent
Cypriot cuisine and friendly
service.

Area |
| Protaras |
| With
some of the best
watersports on the
island, holidays
in Protaras are
definitely for
those who like to
make a splash.
That being said,
it's considerably
quieter than its
fun-loving
neighbour, Ayia
Napa. So, it's a
good choice for
families and
couples looking
for uninterrupted
relaxation. |
