What a destination! The cliche is North Cyprus is "the undiscovered Mediterranean" and never been more appropriate! Whether you are looking for a beach holiday, a little culture or to get out and about on a walking holiday, North Cyprus has it all.

There are many highlights. Walkers should head into the Kyrenia Mountains and Besparmak Range for easy walks with amazing sea views; those interested in castles have a choice of St Hilarion's, Buffavento and Kantara amongst others. Want Greek ruins - head to Salamis, stopping by St Barnabus' Monastery on the way. Head north into the stunning, remote and traditional Karpas Peninsula to get away from it all.

Famagusta is a must-see city, and the jewel in the crown is the delightful Kyrenia, huddled around its little restaurant-lined harbour. Perfect!

North Cyprus is a great place for a holiday. It is only the part of Cyprus that remains unspoilt. Kyrenia with its beautiful venetian harbour and castle is a must see place. There are some nice local restaurants and cafés in the harbour. I enjoyed having a cup of Turkish Caffee after my meal! Kyrenia also boasts many hotels and accommodations. It is a great base to explore the island. Famagusta was full of history including Salamis ruins and more. The Karpaz is amazingly beautiful! It boasts best beaches on Cyprus island. You will be greeted by wild donkeys!

We stayed in Riverside Holiday Village and it was one of the best resorts in North Cyprus. The food was superb, the staff were always friendly and made our holiday a memorable one. If you are looking for a hotel in 9km west of Kyrenia (which is the best part of Kyrenia with nice beaches) I would strongly recommend Riverside.
