What's On Cyprus

Public Holiday’s in Cyprus 2025

Medical, Doctors and Pharmacies

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…

The Grand Slam is a family run British style boozer, it's even on the corner, on the sunny side of the road, and once known as The Corner Pin, inside it looks busy, with quirky little designs mostly mums doing, I just love the Table Tops they're well cool ... There's music memorabilia all over the place with a professional light and sound system, a well stocked bar, with a lovely front terrace onto Kapparis Avenue ... it's a great stop off for an afternoon drink, good pub grub, and there's something happening here almost every night!

Coffee Lab, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 29th October 2023 0

As coffee moves to a higher level in Cyprus, Coffee Lab in Paralimni is leading the way ... They specialise in real fresh ground coffee from a single source, by that I mean they know exactly which Coffee Farm it comes from and that includes speciality coffee from Brazil, Ethiopia, Guatemala and Kenya and if you're lucky you'll catch one of their limited editions ... Trust me they guys know their coffee ... More ...

The Trail to Caledonia Waterfalls, Troodos Mountains

Tony Dynamou - 18th August 2022 0

Louise was on the 'You are Here Map' ... and directed us towards the country trail to the waterfalls ... this trail crosses the stream several times, now with wooden bridges to help, as last time I went, there were no bridges so you had to take your shoes off and get your toes wet ...

Syno Flame Grill, Larnaca

Tony Dynamou - 3rd December 2024 0

So, I asked George to tell me about his choice of beef ... and quite amazingly he told me; "We were the first to bring the burger scene to Larnaca. We mated Black Angus steers with our cows at several local farms, which gave birth to more Angus beef and we're now in our 16th generation and naturally, we get our beef fresh from our associated local farms ... ah ha! that's why my burger tasted so good!

Sharen Taylor Mosaics & Conservation, Paphos

Tony Dynamou - 13th March 2020 0

Sharen explained; Each unique piece brings joy and inspiration to her world, saying "our bespoke mosaics, large or small, are designed with attention to detail and built to withstand our extreme climatic conditions, bringing permanent colour, texture and strength'" saying that her inspiration comes from each individual location, and Sharen obviously loves to work in the reproduction of ancient images, uniquely designing her mosaics and art pieces, and a visit to her workshop is highly recommended!

PowerJet Cleaning & PowerJet Waste Services, Cyprus

Tony Dynamou - 29th June 2022 0

What I like most about this company is the professional set up and their highest quality equipment. Andreas explained, "primarily, for drain clearance we don't use hazardous toxic chemicals, we use normal water and very powerful jetting systems, with pressures from 100 to 350 bar and at temperatures up to 100°C i.e. steam, and so, our system is totally biological"

Bites 7060, Pizza & Vegan Pizza, Livadia

Tony Dynamou - 17th December 2021 0

Vangelis said he had extensive training in Naples, not at collage but at an academy at a traditional pizzeria, with top pizza chefs. The rewards; pizzas as authentic as you can get this side of Italy, the dough, 4 simple ingredients, hand made, but fermented for 48 Hours before use, a Neapolitan influence, which enhances the flavour, then topped with your favourite toppings and baked to perfection in a traditional stone fired revolving oven ... the result a thin base with a light fluffy crust ... I have to say they're delicious!

Nicosia

The Capital is Always worth a visit! Lefkosia or Nicosia, to us die hard’s, lies at the centre of the island, in the Mesaoria Plain, flanked by the northern range of mountains. A charming city…

Tony Dynamou - 9th September 2023 0

Strength & Spices, Limassol

Tony Dynamou - 8th December 2020 0

It all started some years ago, when for personal reasons my father needed to assist with memory loss as he grew older. Dr. Anabtawi aka Mo, has a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering but he's very scientific, coupled with countless years of experience as a registered nutritionist, creating a formula of 23 natural ingredients that were blended together to create their Memory Booster. The results were almost immediate and samples given to friends and when he got re-orders, Strength & Spices were born ...

Short Circuit Online, Hybrid Internet Provider, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 22nd July 2023 0

Short Circuit have moved with the times, now providing quality Internet Access and Security Systems not only to many hotels and their guests but specifically to people without a land line, long or short term visitors, without a contract, so as long as you pay you'll stay connected, and arguably they provide the best and most cost effective internet coverage from the East Coast all the way past Larnaca, and with over 6,000 happy, active customers, and they're growing daily!

Ed’s Note July 2025

Tony Dynamou - 1st July 2025 0

I love July, and you all know it's really my favourite month, partly coz it’s my birthday on the 27th and that means I’ve made it another year, and I’ll probably be throwing a party! The main reason, of course, is it’s peak season, with temperatures in the shade in the high ’30s and it’s getting hotter through 'til August … 'bring it on', I say, we love it hot, that’s why we live here … Mmm, Don’t you just love Cyprus? ... Click on the article to see What's On in Cyprus this month ... and loads more!

Tony Dynamou - 30th June 2025 0

Tony Dynamou - 7th June 2025 0

I love it when I find 'something out of the ordinary', slightly off the beaten track, owned by a guy who just wants to do what he loves with a passion. Savvinos is dedicated about absolutely anything to do with Skatsa and 'Skateboarding'in Larnaca. I've known him from the old indoor skate park days. Now more involved with the new outdoor skate park, if you want more info, give Savvinos a call at LarnaCan Skate & Graffiti Shop, in Downtown, Larnaka ... Click on the article for a Map & More ...
