Kyrenia Travel Guide

At a Glance

Kryenia, with its natural harbour, is a town in tune with the sea, and there lies its beauty and charm. For years it has been fought over, but that is all in the past, these days visitors just want to enjoy all that this beautiful town has to offer.

Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful areas of Northern Cyprus, here you can enjoy an evening on the waterfront, either a stroll along its strand or an evening meal while enjoying breath taking views across the Mediterranean, welcome to Kyrenia.

Getting Around

There are bus services operating between the cities and larger villages but they don't serve all the major tourist resorts. Buses are not run by one company, different routes are leased from the local authority so they look different in appearance, but you can tell it's a bus as the destination is placed in the front! To catch one you can wait at the bus stop or flag one down on the main road.

Eating and Drinking

The food of Northern Cyprus is influenced by mainly the Middle East and across the Mediterranean, the result is delicious food with a fusion of different tastes to delight the pallet.

There are many different restaurants of all types in Kyrenia and you can be sure the majority of them serve fresh local food either caught or picked that day. There are restaurants to suit all budgets, from fine dining with views across the harbour, to smaller more intimate restaurants serving delicious food, if you like sea food you'll love the choice of restaurants in this town! You can also go budget and enjoy a shish for a moderate spend.

Whatever your taste or budget there is a restaurant in Kyrenia you'll enjoy, with those warm Mediterranean evenings just make sure you're outside!

Things to See and Do

There are many different things to do in and around Kyrenia. There are various day trips, private or group ones or tours of Kyrenia and Nicosia. Or you can take yourself off to see the castle in the town centre which has a shipwreck museum.

There are also days out on a boat sailing the sparkling waters of the Mediterranean. There are several available and some include a BBQ, you might even see some turtles! Perhaps you fancy something off road, if so there's jeep safari's too!

Nightlife

There's plenty to do in Kyrenia when the sun goes down. We've talked about all the wonderful and varied restaurants. Once you've enjoyed dinner you can then find a bar where you can enjoy a few drinks, prices are reasonable and the atmosphere in them are always very friendly and lively.

For those of us who want to keep going until the sun comes up there are some nightclubs playing the latest tracks.

Events

There are many events in Kyrenia and the surrounding area, too many to mention here! There are events celebrating all sorts of things, music, food and folk dancing.
