Cyprus is situated in the north-eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea, 33° east and 35° north of the Equator, 75km south of Turkey, 105km west of Syria, 380km north of Egypt and 380km east of Rhodes (Greece).
Cyprus, according to Mythology, is the birthplace of the goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite. The island is both an ancient land, with an eleven thousand year-old history and civilization as well as a young independent republic since 1960. Its geographic location at the crossroads of three continents- Europe, Asia and Africa- and at the meeting point of great civilizations, has been one of the factors influencing the course of the island\'s history throughout the centuries. The history of Cyprus goes back 11,000 years. Cyprus enjoys an intense Mediterranean climate of hot dry summers starting in mid-May and lasting until mid-September and rainy, quite mild winters from November to mid-March. Spring and autumn are effectively short intervals in between, characterised by smooth weather. With almost year-round clear skies and sunshine, daylight length ranges from 9.8 hours in December to 14.5 hours in June In response to a Greek-backed coup, Turkey invaded the island in 1974 and continues to illegally occupy 37% of the island, violating the UN charter. It has established the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, an illegal state, recognized only by Turkey and continues to maintain the division of the island through force.

It was my second trip this year to Cyprus – the island of love. Of course, I didn’t find any love there, because wasn’t looking for it, but still had a really great time! I spent my holidays doing totally nothing – having wine, fishing octopuses, discovering Turkish side as well as Greek side of the island, enjoying night life in Agia Napa and meeting wonderful sunrises… Well… On the other hand, maybe it was more then doing nothing… :)

Nightlife in Cyprus comes in many different varieties. If you are a devoted clubber, you will feel right at home in the trendiest clubs of Ayia Napa, Nicosia and Limassol. Then don't plan nothing :)) because your plans are changing soooo quickly:)) it's better just to enjoy!:)If you like to hang out in a beach bar sipping exotic cocktails you will find your favorite spot in no time in any of the cities and towns along the coasts of Cyprus, from Protaras all the way to Polis Chrysochous.
