Standing tall and proud on the left of Ayia Napa Harbour is the biggest, most stunning, luxurious yacht on the quay, and we were invited by my very good friend Mike for their Sunset Cruise.  We recently made it on board and I must say, my first impressions were, wow! This boat is definitely the most luxurious yacht on the harbour!

convinced by Tony Wade, famed for training the brilliant Sam Smith, Tony suggested John's voice was very soulful and so life changed.  Since then he's concentrated more on Soul and Motown, gigging all over the world including Dubai, Bahrain, and America, oh and Cyprus, twice!  Who'd have thought that he was almost a bank manager lol

This art using a Tebori, a long rod, with an array of needles, soldered by hand and manually attached to the wooden or metal rod and naturally fully Auto Clave sterilised and then using a 'Hand poke' technique aka 'Chiseling', he creates absolutely stunning tattoos and before you ask ... he said some people says it hurts more and some say less ! Hmm?

I love the tall beer barrel tables and stools!  Inside, it's all wood, comfy seating, chandeliers, a cool stage, wicked lighting, music posters, and rock memorabilia all over the place creating a really cozy atmosphere ... oh, and a well cool ambience that's made by lots of like-minded, live music, rock, blues and occasionally jazz freaks, of all ages and nationalities ...

With two safari's every day, your day starts with collection from your hotel at 9.30 for morning safari or 2.30 pm for the afternoon run ... a quick tuition on the bikes and a choice of trips ... the first is a little more extreme, heading out of Napa to the stunning scenery of Cape Greco,  taking in the sea caves, for a bit of rock jumping, and a small waterfall with panoramic views, then on through the beautiful coast town of Protaras and back to Napa the long way around ...

Ghetto Cocktail Bar, Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 0
I have to say this bar is nothing like its name ... it's spacious, with a cool modern design, comfy seating, with an awesome sound system and cool lighting, and it's one of the few bars playing nice Chill-Out music by day and party sounds by night.  In fact, the nearest it gets to its name is when the Elvis tribute sings the song! ... But tbh, where this place excels is in its choice of nightly entertainment, selecting the best live vocalists and tribute acts on the circuit!

George Mintis Law Firm, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 0
I popped into catch up with George and Eva Mintis who have been vey busy since Covid started, with the increase of interest from people moving to Cyprus from the EU and UK ... the topic of conversation moved towards Brexit and it seems they are even busier now, assisting with the purchase of property, offering legal assistance and property conveyancing and indeed immigration procedures after Brexit.  Cyprus of course is still having close ties to Britain.  On that note, this law office is highly respected in all these procedures.

What's so special about these designs, is the hydraulic reclining system added to the designs of these chairs and sunbeds.  Taking a seat on the first set, a 6-seater, dining table, I have to say I was very impressed at how smooth the high-back seat reclined with just a push of the button.
