From overseas, there are scheduled and charter flights to Larnaca International Airport, which is around a 30-45 minute drive away.
Some people also fly into Paphos International Airport, but the journey is just short of two hours.
Everywhere, but mainly from Cyprus, the UK, Israel, Switzerland, Poland, Hungary and Georgia.
100% no, AYIA NAPA is for anyone of any age. Something we LOVE about Ayia Napa is how people of all ages mix. You are never too young or old to enjoy this place we call home!
Something that often shocks first-time visitors is that we use British plug sockets and drive on the left-hand side of the road!
Why?
It’s because Cyprus was under British rule when cars and electricity were introduced in the early 1900s.
So, if you come from the UK, it’s “happy days”. You won’t need travel adaptors. We also use the same voltage as the UK (240 volts), so all your electrical stuff will work perfectly, and driving is much easier.
This is not so true if you come from anywhere else, so remember to bring your “English” adaptors and to drive carefully.
Ayia Napa is the largest tourist resort in Cyprus, with a 27,000-person-bed capacity and more than 175 hotels and apartments of all sizes.
Ayia Napa welcomes over half a million tourists annually and accommodates around 5 million overnight stays annually (approximately 30% of ALL overnight stays in Cyprus).
The resort has 27 beaches, of which the vast majority have been awarded the Blue Flag award (meaning they are super clean and safe), and it has more than any other resort in Cyprus.
Cyprus has the second-highest number of Blue Flags in the world, with Nissi Beach in Ayia Napa regularly topping the TripAdvisor list of the best beaches in Europe.
Nissi Beach is also one of the most popular beaches on Instagram.
Ayia Napa also has a pretty little and quite traditional fishing harbour surrounded by beautiful restaurants, a large WaterPark called WaterWorld and a brand new Marina. Both are around 8 kilometres out of town and can be reached by car or bus in about 8 to 10 minutes.
The resort town comes alive between April and October each year, with August and September being the busiest months.
The weather in Ayia Napa is fantastic most of the year, but it gets super hot in the summer. Temperatures can reach 40 degrees during the summer months and remain in the late 20s and early 30s at night in August and for the first few weeks of September. Perfect for late-night partying!
Ayia Napa is sunny almost every day and is a fantastic place to live, work, or visit if you live for sunny days and party nights.
