Agia Napa Cyprus

The word "Agia" means saint and "Napa" translates into wooded valley so when you go clubbing in Agia Napa be sure to remember that. Yeah right! You will probably associate this beautiful holiday resort with late night clubs and trendy bars but believe me it has a whole lot more to offer holiday makers of all ages. True, it is a great place for a good time but it is a great family resort too offering something for everyone. So before you write it off as somewhere just for young party goers it could be worth reading on.

The town was once a small fishing village with a pretty harbor and a few local shops tucked away a few kilometers from the bustling resort of Protaras. The harbor is still there and now it is home to a host of pleasure craft as well as the little fishing boats. If you don't wear yourself out clubbing you can still catch the fishing boats as they return in the morning and maybe even pick up some fresh fish too. Another great feature of the harbor area are the many restaurants where you can relax and watch the world go past whilst enjoying a huge range of cuisine including surprisingly, fish!

The beaches there are amoungst the best in the area perfect for bathing or sun bathing with plenty of beach front bars and restaurants to escape to when the sun gets too much for you. Nissi beach is another beautiful stretch of coast with plenty of water sports and facilities for all the family. There is a great paved walkway that runs along the coast from the pretty harbor right through to Nissi beach which is a great way to walk off those hoiday excesses and take in the beautiful coastal scenery at the same time.

The town has more than enough shops and supermarkets of every conceivable type so you won't go short of any of those holiday essentials either. Bars, how many do you want? Even if clubbing doesn't float your boat it's still worth paying a visit to the famous square home to all the top clubs and bars. Bearing in mind that things don't get going properly until about one o'clock in the morning the bars are already bustling from around 9pm. So why not take justa little peep and maybe indulge that hidden party animal just a little. There are even several clubs that play the nostalgic music of the 70's 80's and 90's so even the mums and dads be able to sing along.
