North Cyprus is a must see place if you are heading to Cyprus. If you are based in the south part of the island it is easy to cross the border to the north. Northern Cyprus offers great beaches, world class restaurants and amazing places to see.

North Cyprus is a beautiful place to visit. There many historical sites, magnificent beaches, great restaurants and enjoyable things to do. Kyrenia harbour and catle, St. Hilairon Castle, Karpas Peninsula are top visited places.

Agness – I visited in late August and wasn’t to crowded – the county has a fairly long warm season – so I think anytime from April through mid November would be ok. I didn’t get the chance to visit Ayia Napa in the southern part of the island – but I hear its more of a party atmosphere.

Andri – I am well aware of the situation in Cyprus – and was when I visited. For travelers it is easy to cross between the north and the south.

Cyprus seems like an ultimate travel destination and the northern part of it is truly astonishing, Dave. When’s the best time of the year to go to Cyprus and is it a good destination for a road trip?

Please be aware “Northern Cyprus” has been illegally occupied since July 1974. The ‘Attila line’ separates it from the free part of the island. The Turkish policy of violently forcing a third of the island’s Greek population from their homes; preventing their return; and settling people from Turkey there, is ethnic cleansing. Many lost their lives, many are still missing and many are refugees to this day. There are 40,000 Turkish soldiers in the occupied area, which is recognised in law by Turkey alone.

South of the line, the Republic of Cyprus is under government control and functions in the same way as any other European country. As so many people were suddenly displaced to a relatively small area, parts are densely populated while others, e.g. the Troodos mountains, offer an alternative holiday experience.

Teh – yes, a great place to get away from the it all, relax, eat and drink good food and lounge around the beaches – at least that is what I did when I visited 🙂

It seems like Cyprus is a gem on an off-beaten path
