Cyprus Paradise Experts Recommend

Although spending the duration of your entire holiday enjoying the exotic and luxurious surroundings of The Merit Crystal Cove is highly appealing once you’re there, the hotel is also fortunate enough to be in a great location for visiting some of the fascinating sights that Kyrenia is famous for. 

The Peace and Freedom Museum is only a couple of minutes’ drive away, featuring a historical war memorial monument and is frequently visited by both locals and tourists.  If you enjoy walking, it’s highly recommended that you visit the neighbouring town of Lapta (about a 10 minute drive west of Kyrenia), where you will come across the only purpose built coastal promenade stretching 1.5km.  The views are sensational, perfect for those memorable holiday photos!  On the way there, you will pass through Lambousa, which also contains rich history and fascinating structures, including Roman era fish tanks - large rectangular pools, constructed by cutting into the rock. The remains of the Roman harbour wall are also visible, with two churches beyond (although the churches are not currently permitted to be explored).

There is a courtesy bus service from the hotel to Kyrenia, which operates at set times, and in approx.15 minutes, you will be able to enjoy the vibrant shops, restaurants, bars and visit famous, historical sites in the centre of Kyrenia, including its picturesque harbour and incredible castle.  If you have hired a car, it’s a lovely idea to stop off on the way to explore and the fascinating Bronze Age cemetery in the beautiful mountain village of Karaman.  The hotel’s receptionists and your Tour Rep will be more than happy to advise you on the best directions according to your method of transport.
