In the Area

Ayia Napa, about 8km west,is the largest town in the vicinity and well worth your time. It has a well-deserved reputation as a party town, so if that’s your thing, this is a good place for it. On the other hand, for history buffs, The Ayia Napa Monastery is the city’s oldest landmark and is why the town that grew up around it is so named. The 15^th-century Venetian-built complex of buildings is in the center of town, when it was originally built it was in a relatively remote pine forest. This formerly Catholic monastery is incongruously sited right in the midst of Ayia Napa’s clubbing center, so at night while the monastery sleeps, the nightlife all around explodes with noise and revelry.

The Thalassa (Sea) Museum in Ayia Napa is one of the best museums in Cyprus. It’s the only major museum in the Mediterranean devoted to the sea. It covers 7,000 years of local maritime history, and houses a large collection of archeological artifacts, a full-sized mockup of an ancient fishing vessel, and a large display of mounted sea creatures among others.

Waterworld Water Park in Ayia Napa has 18 plunges, pools and side attractions and an overall theme of Greek Mythology.

Cape Greco is a protected preserve, and, as mentioned, right next to the hotel. It has a network of hiking trails, strategically placed benches to rest and take in the views, and a system of sea caves that can be accessed by local boat tours.

Sculpture Park bills itself as a “contemplative cultural attraction” and can be found on some high ground overlooking the sea just east of Ayia Napa. Twenty sculptors from around the world contributed works of art. There are 40 sculptures in all, carved from white marble or limestone. Themes vary from local ancient and mythological statues to the completely abstract. The park itself is a work in progress, with new items being added, and is admission-free.

The Makronissos Tombs, about 5km west of Ayia Napa, is the site of 19 Hellenistic and Roman tombs carved out of the living rock.

The Parko Paliatso Luna Park near Ayia Napa is the largest such park on the island, and a favorite of Ayia Napa’s party crowd. Not a lot here for the young ones, but plenty of thrilling rides for the big people, including the Sling Shot, Europe’s highest ejection seat ride.

There are plenty of day trips on 4-wheel drives, and boat trips to explore Cape Greko’s caves, amongst other activities.

Grecian Park Hotel has all the makings, therefore, of a complete holiday package, with plenty to see and do not only in the resort itself, but also in the immediate area.
