Cyprus Travel Facts
Cyprus is the third-largest island in the Mediterranean, sitting at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa. The island combines 340 days of sunshine a year with a layered history stretching back 10,000 years - Crusader castles, Roman mosaics at Paphos, painted Byzantine churches in the Troodos Mountains, and the divided capital Nicosia all within a few hours' drive. The south coast resorts of Ayia Napa and Limassol draw beach-goers, while the Akamas Peninsula offers wild, undeveloped coastline and hiking trails through protected nature reserves.
