Famagusta District Ayia Napa Area Ayia Napa Center
 

Ayia Napa is famous for it’s beaches and nightlife. It was built for fun in the sun!!! 

However, although it has a reputation as a summer playground for the young, in the spring and autumn it offers an atmosphere, which is enjoyed by both couples and families alike.

Attracting nearly a quarter of the island’s tourists Ayia Napa is one of the most popular resorts on the Island. Originally it was a small fishing village and its name comes from the Ancient Greek meaning, “built in the middle of the forest” although the forest is now long gone.
