Cyprus is the third largest island in the Mediterranean and one of the most beautiful places on the planet. With over 300 days of sunshine a year and some of the cleanest beaches in Europe, the island boasts 57 official blue flag beaches with a myriad of water sports on offer in the crystal-clear sea making the beaches as inviting as the local people.

The history of Cyprus is more than ten thousand years old and there are many monuments to witness the change over the past centuries. For example, a visit to the archaeological marvel, Tomb of the Kings, and a trek up the forested Troodos Mountains are a must. The mountains are filled with pretty, traditional villages, snowy peaks and exquisite Mediterranean nature, showcasing the green heart of Cyprus.

Cyprus is situated at a crossroads of three continents, as a result the local cuisine is a fusion of Southern European, middle eastern and central Asian influences. There is no better way to sample the extraordinary cuisine than from a waterfront restaurant or a quaint traditional taverna. Cyprus is a fantastic choice for families seeking a fun-packed holiday with many attractions all over; including waterparks, nature, and wildlife areas as well as a variety of boat trips or you could try your hand at horseback riding.
