Walk along the sea side path and inhale the fresh sea air. Find the perfect spot overlooking the Mediterranean to enjoy a warm drink at one of the sea side coffee shops.

Let your children play in the sand, fly kites and collect sea shells. The winter in Cyprus is very mild and many days are sunny and warm.

Visit archaeological sites and combine your visit with your favorite activities. Some suggestions… cycle along the sea side cycling path to visit the Ancient Kingdom of Amathous, visit the Medieval Castle and shop in the nearby Ayiou Andreou and Anexartesias streets.

Explore picturesque villages to discover the traditional Cyprus architecture, stroll in narrow stone paved streets, talk to the locals, visit thematic museums and of course, taste the local delicacies at the village Kafenion (coffee shop) or tavern.

Spend a relaxing morning or afternoon in the old town, visit Ayia Napa church, the Turkish baths, the Mosque, the Medieval Castle, the Municipal Market and the commercial streets of the town.

A visit at the Limassol Medieval Castle square could not be left out of our list. Any time of the day and especially during the evening, the square bursts with life. With an abundance of coffee shops, restaurants and bars, it offers you the opportunity to see a different ‘face’ of a place with thousands of years of history.

The Limassol Municipal Gardens & Zoo can be the perfect place for a relaxing walk. Take your book with you and enjoy reading in the outside. Let your children play safely in the play grounds.
