Ayia Napa is east of larnaka - on the coast obviously, past dekalia.

Here is another recent panaromic shot of the ayia napa beach (quite big - 2 meg or so)

They're more likely to be the remnants of a previous night's kebab from one of the many tanked-up tourists who frequent said resort. I love Cyprus, but can't stand visiting that part of the island (Cavo Greko excluded), far too over-developed for my tastes...



Here's where Agia Napa is, although Nicosia's location point on this map leaves a lot to be desired...

It is not just the beauty, it is all the wonderful smells of this country. May sound strange, but now that I've said it, you may remember me the next time you travel abroad. I love the smells of Cyprus, (not just the food), and it is rare to have as much variety, except in other places, just as old.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Then you would hate what they have done to some of the beautiful inlets at Bodrum,in Turkey,Moose.At one place (Turkbuku) there are floating discos from one end of the beach to the other.All full of tanked-up tourists and local hangers-on,drinking and dancing(if you could call it that) to different beats of loud pop.After half and hour near one of these places,I threatened to attack the DJ and break his equipment on his head,
if my companions did not take me out of there... :) They did. :lol:

Bir, thats a pretty exact description of the night life in Napa :-(

I love it in the winter though cause its fewer tourists there and one can enjoy the nice beaches.

Oh dear, oh dear...City!
And they call it progress in tourism,I suppose.
Well,if Al Gore is right (in his documentary An Inconvenient Truth),places like those above will be under water in not so distant future.
But,then,they will probably build underwater discos and carry on... :evil:
