Cyprus
Cyprus, is the most easterly and the third largest of the islands in the Mediterranean. It sits sun-drenched, under clear blue skies for 340 days a year with temperatures rarely dropping below 16'c. Spring is warm and fresh, summer lazy and long, while winter is short and mild. Even in December and January, there is an average of six hours of bright sunshine per day. Whether you want to be lively and energetic; soak up the sun or just sit back quietly and relax, Cyprus has something for everyone.

Cyprus is an island of breathtaking scenery, with beautiful beaches set against a landscape of rugged cliffs, dense pine forests, field after field of vines, citrus and banana trees, and 127 flower varieties found nowhere else in the world. Steeped in mythology and widely believed to be Anthony's gift to Cleopatra and the birthplace of Aphrodite, this island, with its high standard of modern-day living, still retains a strong sense of the historic.

Recognised as the most sun-sure spot in the eastern mediterranean, Cyprus enjoys an average of 340 sunny days per year and low annual rainfall. Wherever you go, you will find that the local people are friendly and welcoming, and that English is widely spoken throughout the island. The currency is in pounds and cents in the same denominations as the British pounds and pence, driving is on the left, electricity is 240v using 3-pin plugs and telecommunication services are good. No vaccinations are required and both public and private healthcare services are of a high standard.

An ideal all year round resort with beautiful beaches where you can sunbathe, snorkel, scuba or sail. The swimming season starts in early April and doesn't really end until November.

For the golfer there are three spectacular 18 hole courses within 20 minutes drive of Paphos.

Cyprus is the birthplace of Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and Beauty, and has many Places of Interest including cultural and historical sites such as the Tomb of the Kings and Aphrodite's Rock. While the Greek culture prevails, around 80% of the population speak English. All of the street, directional and shop signs are written in English too.

Explore the Akamas Peninsular or the Troodos Mountains, where you can hike and bike or look for the many species of birds and flowers. In the Winter months you can ski in the mountains and swim in the Mediterranean on the same day!
