Cyprus |

Cyprus
is the third largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and attracts millions
of tourists every year. Its historic ties with the United Kingdom make it a
strong favourite among British holiday makers.
Organised activities on the
beautiful beaches that adorn the Cypriot coastline offer plenty of scope for
parents to grab a few peaceful hours under the Mediterranean sun. If theme
parks are on the agenda, Cyprus has enough to satisfy the child in all of
us. Water fun can be found at the Marine Park and "Water World" in Ayia
Napa or Aphrodite Waterpark in Pafos. For the intrepid explorer there are more 'challenging' assignments -
Dinosaurs Park and camel riding at Camel Park in Larnaca throwing down the
gauntlet to the young and old alike!
Cyprus is renowned for its
fine beaches. They are the #1 reason why tourists visit the island, and so
are vital to the tourist economy of Cyprus. As of 2005, forty-eight beaches
on the island fly the EU Blue Flag - a demonstration of just how special the
beaches on Cyprus really are.
Paphos
District
There are 11 blue flag beaches in the district of Pafos. These are Alykes,
Polis Camping Site, Coral Bay, Faros, Geroskipou, Laourou, Municipal Baths,
Municipal Beach, Pachyammos, Vrysoudia A and Vrysoudia B. All beaches offer
clean and beautiful sands on which to play and sunbathe. Coral Bay in the
Peyia municipality is a great beach for kids as the sands slope into the sea
at a very shallow angle.
