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…

George showed me around the grounds explaining; "You can learn so much about marine life here, and rivers and swamps and the Penguins, the first ever in the Mediterranean region, naturally kept comfortable in the appropriate climate controlled environment". Just watching one of their videos I amazingly learned that all Gold Fish don't have stomachs, so they have to keep eating, which means you should feed them small amounts 5 times a day, probably why I was never successful keeping one, but now I know!

To’ Nissiotiko Taverna, Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 8th October 2022 0

Serving traditional Cypriot cuisine, or as Artemaki calls it, ''pure horthiaytiko'' or 'village-style' in English. The food is always cooked fresh, mostly over real charcoal, so it'll take at least 20 minutes to be served, but let me just say; it's worth every minute! and don't worry the pitta bread, dips and salads will wet your apatite. Whilst Arimaki's mum cooks traditional Cypriot dishes for your delight!

Larnaca

The Hub of Cyprus If you’re staying in Larnaca, this port of old, discovering the island’s other attractions couldn’t be easier with countless day trips in every direction, and meanwhile you’ll find out why it’s…

Alki Sports Bar & Grill, Oroklini, Larnaca

Tony Dynamou - 11th September 2023 0

A place with a cool atmosphere, to enjoy good food, but with big portions, served fresh from the Charcoal Grill, hosting regular events and of course showing all the live sports on the 4 big screens. The decor traditional taverna style, inside it's spacious, comfy, a lovely log burner for the chilly winter evenings and outside a covered courtyard for the balmy summer nights ... oh I'm loving the new extended bar with RGB lights, looks well cool ...

Kat’s Prints & Crafts, Xylophagou

Tony Dynamou - 21st February 2018 0

Healthy Life Bio Stores, Paralimni & Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 11th January 2024 0

It’s much bigger than it looks from the outside, and Jason has carefully selected products from several sectors within the Bio Store world including; things to eat, for the skin, body, and hair, and also a selection of Eco-Friendly cleaning products … and another nice touch is, if they haven’t got it they’ll find it for you!

Limassol

Our Capital on the Coast also known as Lemessos it’s by far the largest coastal resort in Cyprus, and was the first town to grow after the Turkish invasion in 1974. Many of Famagusta’s residents moved…

Rock FM Radio, Paphos, Latchi & Limassol

Tony Dynamou - 1st August 2018 0

... Based up on the West Coast, they do play rock but the music mix is much more versatile, everything from Charts, Top 40 and latest releases to Retro and of course all the Classics. Its 24/7 with top presenters live on weekdays between 7 am and 11 pm, when it switches to non stop music. Oh, and you don't have to be on the West Coast to listen, I often listen on line and I live on the east coast, it's a really cool station!

Capodecina Pasta Bar, Larnaca

Tony Dynamou - 9th April 2022 0

I popped into meet Stelios and Eleni, inside its clean cut, minimalistic, Italian designer style, with wooden flooring, comfortable seating for around 25 people inside and a few tables outside for Al' Fresco dining … Stelios told me "we wanted to make it feel like Home from Home" … I loved the really cool photos chosen by Eleni, especially the one saying "Eat the Spaghetti to Forget your Regretti", brilliant"!

The Black Pearl, Pirate Boat Trip, Ayia Napa

Hoisting the colours, Captain Jack Sparrow, Sweet Bonnie and all the other gorgeous pirates, who will get you in the mood, making pirate flags and dressing you up and teaching you some pirates facts and some pirate lingo ... and you'll even learn the Pirates Oath ... ho ho ho, and a bottle of Rum!

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…

Los Bandidos Mexican Restaurant, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 3rd November 2023 0

It's just a short walk up from Ayia Napa's square and without a doubt, one of the best restaurants in Cyprus!, just ask anyone! oh, and I should warn you, it’s seriously addictive!!! Established over 30 years this eatery quickly gained its reputation as one of the finest eateries in Cyprus and every year they seem to get better. They do absolutely everything with such style and finesse and with an excellent crew, most of them have been there for years, a few since they opened, so a more well-oiled team is hard to find. Then there's the authentic music and traditional Mexican décor, regular events, oh, and sombreros and cacti everywhere! ... A visit is a must!

Saint’s Health Club, Nicosia

Fat Mama’s Italian American Diner, Kato Paphos

Tony Dynamou - 13th September 2019 0

Fat Mama’s is one of those special places that’s so good you’ll just keep going back, so naturally after 25 years it gets really busy every night with bookings not accepted after 7 pm, but don’t worry, if you have to wait to be seated you can enjoy a drink from a well-stocked bar. Mixing one of my favourite Mojitos or try one of their intoxicating cocktails, and at 2 for the price of 1 during happy hours!

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

Tony Dynamou - 9th August 2018 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!

Easter Orthodox Style, 2024

Tony Dynamou - 1st May 2024 0

... At midnight all the lights are extinguished in the church and the priest comes from behind the doors of the altar carrying a candle. Walking to somebody in the front row and lighting their candle, this person and so on then pass the light from candle to candle and the light fills the church, symbolizing the Resurrection. Everyone then kisses one another and exchanges the words 'Christos Anesti' - Christ has risen, 'Alithos Anesti' - truly He has risen. ...

Paralimni & Kapparis

Next to the Lake Paralimni is best described as Ayia Napa and Protaras’ ‘live in’ village, Para-limni means, next to the lake! And we still have, arguably, our winter fill as evidence, enough to confuse…

Nai Coffee, Café & Events, Dherynia

Tony Dynamou - 3rd December 2023 0

I recently accidentally discovered 'Nai Coffee' on the road from Dherynia to Sotira. The building is the stunning, old 'Kalograia Taverna', the barn-style staggered apex roof, striking and unusual.

It's February, I thought January was never gonna end? Now, you just have to love February in Cyprus! It's spring on the island of Aphrodite, our Goddess of Love and there's romance in the air, everywhere, especially on the 14th when we celebrate Valentine’s Day, which this year falls on a Friday so you might as well make love all weekend! ... oh and, I love watching the postman struggle to get all my cards in the little letterbox.

Andrew Rafferty with Two Sides of Phil Collins, one of the world's best tributes to the legend himself ... This guy looks like Phil, dresses identical and sounds just like him ... and as we hadn't seen rain since May this cover of 'I wish It Would Rain' was quite apt!
