Ayia Napa

WARNING ! You’re gonna find it pretty hard to leave this fantasy to go back to reality …

Anyone who knows Napa, knows, that ‘full of youths’ stigma is just a load of media hype and no different from any other top resort! Fact is, it’s so versatile…

... and as it'd be rude not to go, I thought I'd grab my first real night out in Napa for ages ... I was meeting up with a new friend Zilly aka Dr. Feelgood, an awesome DJ, just moved here from Germany, you'll be hearing lots of this summer I'm sure ...

Club Ice, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 0
This is without question one of Napa’s top clubs. Going since the nineties when Napa was the club capital of Europe, Club Ice is still one of the best clubs in Europe!  Holding a little under 2000 clubbers it's one of my favourite DJ auditoriums and the backdrop is ice cool 😉 and the lighting and sound system is absolutely awesome!

19th Paradise Jazz Festival, Pomos 17th & 18th August 2018

Tony Dynamou - 0
To some it must have seemed a crazy idea to invite renowned jazz artists from England to a border area of Cyprus and so far up the West Coast, the Paradise Jazz Festival took off immediately and was loved by the audience from the very beginning, first by the British ex pats of the area, and then then by the musicians from Cyprus, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Greece, Israel, oh and then by all island's nationalities, giving it a truly international image!

Talking about beaches, Ayia Napa and Protaras on the east coast, boast 2 of the Best Beaches in Europe and tbh, we're blessed with the nicest sea I’ve ever had the pleasure to swim in, in the world ... Add stuff like; Licensing hours currently ‘til 2.30 am, and then, of course, our night clubs will take you through to sunrise, not too good for the tan unless you go straight to the beach after a good night out, speaking by experience 😉

A Christmas Storing ?

Tony Dynamou - 0
Christmas is as good an excuse as any to stock up on a few bottles of wine to accompany all that festive fayre.  Perhaps, if you are really lucky a loved one may even treat you to a bottle or case of your favourite tipple as a Christmas gift.  So, how do you go about storing it?

Nemo Submarine, Ayia Napa

Setting sail at 11 am daily from Ayia Napa’s splendid harbour, heading West along the coast to Palace Caves where they'll stop for a quick swim and you can watch them feeding the fish and it's a great place to do a bit of snorkeling and if you ask them nicely they'll let the kids steer .. I just love to see their facial expressions, brilliant!

I loved this place the moment I saw the name, … It's a British Style pub, from the outside all white and doors, really cool signage and some comfy seating to enjoy a drink in the late sunny afternoons and watch the world go by, hanging baskets and signs everywhere. Inside, pristine, the bar wood and red brick, it's spacious with comfy seating, out back a Unique Beer Garden with regular live music events. It's one of my favourites to watch all the live sports . Over to the right a separate games area, with pool table and regular Killer Pool and a Bar Football table … and to top it off one of the best chef's in Cyprus!!!

Ed’s Note November 2026

Tony Dynamou - 0
It's one of my favourite months, coz the long hot summer is over, or is it? coz it looks like our prediction that 'we’re gonna have another Indian Summer this year', is happening with temperatures expected to hit 29°C this month it looks like we were right again!  Following all that rain we had in October, the air is clearer, so the sun will be stronger, be warned!  So, you’ll still be able to wear shorts and a tee-shirt by day, chill out around the pool or pop down to the beach to Top up the Tan for Christmas, did I just say Christmas? omg! …

Family Halloween Party @ Antelia Bee Park

Tony Dynamou - 0
"The idea was to throw an amazing Halloween Party for my kids, their friends, brothers, sisters and their parents, and even grandparents, and when the numbers got towards 100, I realised that there's a lot of parents looking for things to do for Halloween, so we asked the amazing Antonis Elia if we could host it at Antelia Bee Park in Dasaki Achna.  And we're going to make it an international event that all our kids will remember forever".
