Holidays in Ayia Napa

Once a sleepy fishing village, Ayia Napa is now the party capital of Cyprus. Ayia Napa town centre is based around the central square, which is lined with restaurants, shops, bars and nightclubs. By day, the square is a perfect spot to relax over a coffee and watch the world go by, and by night the square comes alive with groups of young partygoers. Ayia Napa is the party capital of Cyprus; its streets are bursting with discos, big-name DJs, hectic bars and thumping nightclubs.
