On our second day in Cyprus we spent the day in Aya Napa, the beach area of Cyprus. We hired a car for the week so we drove there ourselves. We had a fantastic day at the beautiful beaches! We first went and had a look at Cape Greco (the 3rd picture) which was GORGEOUS! The colour of the water was magic. We then went and swam at a really nice beach. I am not entirely sure what it was called but it was near Nissi. We had a great swim there and then went and had a really nice lunch at a taverna nearby! We then went to the most famous beach in Cyprus, Nissi Beach! The beach was beautiful and the weather was perfect so we had a beautiful swim and spent a few hours there. There were some parties going on in the clubs and music playing on different areas of the beach. I would have loved to spend more time at Aya Napa as it was a wonderful area - but we were so busy all week we never got a chance to go back. That night we went out for an another amazing dinner at a really beautiful Taverna with all of the family. We had delicious souvlaki, haloumi, dips and pita bread and so many other Greek delicacies. SO MUCH FOOD! We also went up a hill and looked at a gorgeous view of Cyprus which was beautiful. The first two days in Cyprus were so busy but wonderful! It was so exciting to see all of the family and get our first taste of Cyprus! Follow me on Instagram and subscribe on YouTube to see all of the gorgeous pictures/videos of my trips!

After a VERY long journey it was SO EXCITING to finally arrive in Cyprus and start the holiday! My dad's family is from Cyprus so when we arrived at the airport we had a big welcoming party and it was so exciting to meet everyone and see people we had met when they had come to AUS in the past! We went straight to a big family lunch, which was really nice and then went home had a little rest. We stayed with some cousins of ours which was actually really cool. It was nice going home to a house every night and not a hotel. We then went sightseeing around Larnaca. We went to the fort of Larnaca which was very cool to see! It is a piece of history! We saw canons used in the war, gallows and very interesting things. We also walked along the boardwalk through the restaurants and looked at the beach which was lovely. We also went to the church of Lazarus and saw his tomb which was very interesting to see.
When our cousin said we were having dinner at the beach we never knew how literally he meant it! We had a beautiful traditional dinner ON THE BEACH watching the sunset and it was magical! We had a wonderful night with all of our family at the coolest location! We had a really busy day, especially considering we arrived at lunch time that day after around 2 days of travel! I had a great first day in Cyprus and was so excited for the week to come! |
