 North Cyprus, holidays like they used to be....

Northern Cyprus has often been described as 'the Mediterranean of your childhood' and that phrase sums up the peace, serenity and sheer natural beauty of this almost forgotten backwater of the Levant.

Whilst most of the Mediterranean has succumbed to the excesses of mass tourism, North Cyprus is one of the few places where tourism fits in with the environment, rather than the other way round.

With less than one tenth of the visitors that swarm to the southern resorts like Paphos, in Northern Cyprus the locals still outnumber the visitors and the north is considered not only the most beautiful part of Cyprus, but one of the best of all the Mediterranean resorts.

The geography means you can spend the morning by the sea indulging your tan, take lunch in a mountain-top taverna enjoying the spectacular views and then spend an afternoon exploring some of the most incredible historical sites the whole Mediterranean region has to offer. The possibilities are endless.

Surprisingly, amongst all of this serenity and natural beauty, holidays in North Cyprus have a more lively side. There are villa developments for anyone interested in overseas property. Kyrenia has over 300 restaurants and tavernas and the island offers many activities, including horse-riding, go-karting, paragliding, quad-biking and a full range of water sports.

The sheer beauty of the island, the natural friendliness of the people and the wonderful climate combine to make holidays in Northern Cyprus an unforgettable experience.
