For those of you that like water sports Cyprus has loads to
offer, from Windsurfing and Boat trips
to Yacht charter and learning all about Diving. We
have a section on boats for sale and wanted,
also crew wanted and available, the waters around Cyprus are
perfect for
Sailing in Cyprus, diving and other water
sports.
Staying with water for a moment, we have to conserve water in Cyprus, it is a relatively
small island with a population that increases drastically in the summer months. The way we
try to cope with the problem is by rationing water to residents (currently 3 days a week)
however we still seem to be able to provide it for less cost than the UK which is
a wet country!
So just remember when taking those 5 showers a day to keep them short. Freshwater fishing is another activity we
are covering now, and it is growing rapidly in popularity, interested in carp?
You can hire everything here from pedaloes and jet
skis to parachutes. and even go bunjee jumping with the real
professionals from Down Under.
The night life here is rich and varied, and you can find anything from English pubs, restaurants,
cabarets, disco's and theme bars to all night
restaurants and places of entertainment with live music and
shows. The streets are not deserted here at 3am, especially in
Ayia Napa
Booze and cigarettes here are very cheap and it is not the
ideal place to give up smoking , wine tasting and experimentation
with cocktails and mixes could play a large part of your holiday
if you are that way inclined , we certainly have the facilities at prices that make it
viable, and you will have a ball.
In fact I would say that Cyprus has just about everything to
offer that you could want, for a holiday, as a retirement home,
as an offshore company base or as a place to bring up your children where there is still the safety to let them play on a
beach and talk to strangers, who if they are locals are being friendly because they love
children. Children are not only tolerated in Cyprus, they are positively pampered, you
will find children in the restaurants and bouzouki halls, they are included in their
parents recreation time and not just left at home with the babysitter. See
schools
and education here.
If you go to the Cyprus pages, you can
find camping and caravan sites, Youth hostels,
Tourist organisation information,
daily
exchange rates, medical care info,
alternatives, how to buy a duty
free car , or rent one for your holiday and where to fill it up with petrol.
(You can even get your weekly sidereal horoscope
done here) hire a villa, apartment or old house and more.
We have animals (new
feature on the donkey sanctuary) and wildlife pages where you can find Mouflon, flamingo's and the
Pasha butterfly. The marine life you are likely to
encounter is being added to, and the fishing
section is growing. If you are interested in the fate of the sea, please sign our online petition if you agree with
it. And the Greenpeace pages are here, do
