Cyprus Information
There are many reasons to visit Cyprus - many people return year after year to sample the hospitality, the beautiful weather, the gorgeous food, the abundant fruit and the local wines and spirits.
For the first-time visitor, life is made easier by the fact that:
* English is widely spoken
* Driving in Cyprus is on the left - so car hire need not be daunting
* Three-pin electrical plugs are used, just like in the UK
* Cyprus has now converted to the Euro for currency
There are so many attractions on Cyprus that appeal to young and old - and Paphos is an ideal base from which to start exploring!
Alternatively you could just relax by the pool or on the beach and take advantage of the year-round sunny weather!
