“Cyprus is the island of Aphrodite, and to visit it is to understand why the ancients placed the goddess of love on this particular shore. There is something in the light here that is unlike any other light in the world.”

— Lawrence Durrell, Bitter Lemons of Cyprus

Cyprus is the Mediterranean’s best-kept secret and its most rewarding surprise. The third-largest island in the sea, it packs within its sun-drenched borders more variety than most countries ten times its size: ancient ruins older than Rome, some of the finest beaches in Europe, a cuisine that draws on Greek, Turkish, Middle Eastern and British traditions simultaneously, and a nightlife that has made Ayia Napa one of the most famous party destinations on earth. For young travellers seeking sun, history, culture, adventure and exceptional food at genuinely affordable prices, Cyprus delivers everything — and then, when you think it has finished, it delivers more. This guide will help you experience every dimension of this extraordinary island.
