One of the most popular resort towns on the island of
Cyprus, Ayia Napa is a destination that has it all. Located on the southeast coast, it is home to
14 blue flag beaches, so you really are spoilt for choice. The name Ayia Napa derives from a Venetian monastery. In Greek, Ayia means “holy”, and Napa means “wooded valley”. Long ago, there used to be a thick forest that surrounded the town, hence the name. Famous for its party scene, there are over 80 bars in and around the Central Square, but there is so much more to love about this holiday hotspot.
