Public Holiday’s in Cyprus 2025

Tony Dynamou - 3rd January 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…

Rodolfos Butchers & Delicatessen, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 11th November 2023 0

They'll ask you how you'd like your meat, tidied, trimmed and cut, always doing that first before they weigh it and once you get to know these guys, you just say things like 'extra fine ground beef for bolognese, for four people' and they know how much to give you ... bear in mind they're Cypriot portions 😉 ... I often run through an order for my BBQ's and how many people are coming and Andreas says I think that's enough ... brilliant!

Kids & Grown Ups, Nicosia

admin - 2nd March 2016 0

Cyprus is The Mythological Party Playground of the Mediterranean ... for kids and grownups !!!

Ding Dong Home, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 17th December 2024 0

I said 'I like the idea' and he responded with a smile, "Saves driving to Larnaca!" ... I asked how can you keep everything so low cost, and he responded, "Well, we buy lots of stock for our shop in Greece, and now for here" ... so with literally thousands of different items in store, for your home, garden and leisure time, here's a quick peek ...

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…

Tennis

Cyprus of course has 330 days sunshine a year, so tennis being a summer sport means we get a long season in 🙂 ......

The Lingo – Basic Course

Tony Dynamou - 21st October 2017 0

We thought you might appreciate a quick crash course in the basics of the local lingo, which is a sort of slang Greek, aka ‘Horthkatika’ which is basically a village Greek. Most of the locals speak English but they love it if you make an effort to speak their language. I do it in English phonetics so just read in English … Simples! … oh and don’t take it too seriously …

Papageorgiou Hotel & Domestic Equipment, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 13th September 2019 0

Not just for hotels, this place caters for everyone who loves to cook ... The stock is extensive, to say the least, and delivery is nationwide, which is why they're favoured by many top hotels, restaurants, bars, cafeterias, apartments and private and domestic homes. I think it's the only place you can go to find just what you need, on every visit!

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…

Snazz that Glass

Tony Dynamou - 14th May 2018 0

Angela mostly works on glass but she can jazz almost anything up. She also loves making hand painted cards, naturally unique every time. One of her faves, bottles, not just with glitter, which btw is biodegradable . Glass Painting aka Stained Glass . Faux Glass aka Liquid Leading . also the ancient Chinese art of Decoupage, using rice paper, the results are stunning !

Do You Believe in Mermaids ?

Tony Dynamou - 6th June 2016 0

This is a magical fairy tale of Mermaids, Pirates and lost treasures ...

Parko Paliatso Luna Park, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 28th June 2018 0

I love this place, the sounds of gears and links chinking, smothered by fair ground music, the smell of candy floss and bbq corn on the cob, the multi coloured lights and occasional girly screams. It's really cool idea coz you just buy a Wrist Band depending on your ages and what you want to do!

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…

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 ...

Diving School on the Sea @ AquaNaut Diving School, Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 24th April 2016 0

He's as passionate about the sea, as I am about Cyprus ! Sons Andreas and Theo are part of the fixtures and fittings and together they make an awesome team ... As you can see they were busy getting ready for the new season ...

Paphos

Sunset Boulevard Also known as Pafos, it’s quite a way up the west coast, where the sun turns into a big red doorknob as it sets into the Med … it’s the birthplace of the…

Giggs’ Gonna Rap in Napa!

Tony Dynamou - 20th June 2019 0

... I'm sure we're gonna hear his top tunes like 'Look What the Cat Dragged In', btw I loved the mix by Drake ft Giggs KMT, naturally 'London Town', and of course, 'Baby', and we're gonna be shaking our booties, with our toes in the sand, at the only beach festival in Napa this year BCL ... and I can't wait, it's gonna be sick!

Cyprus Rocks Festival 2024, Protaras … 3rd ’til 8th October

Tony Dynamou - 2nd September 2024 0

What started as a weekend gig, grew into a week long party, a week long pure rock festival, live bands on a big stage, and often in intimate venues, where you get a chance to grab a drink and socialise with like minded mates you've not seen since the last festival, as well as the band members who hang around the venues, along with the thousands of rock fans that started to follow Cyprus Rocks Festival over ten years ago ...

House of Paws, Pet Boutique, Paphos

Tony Dynamou - 13th April 2021 0

Alongside dogs and cats, 'House of Paws' caters to many species of animals: small mammals, aquatic, reptiles and avian. There are cages and tanks available, along with specialist foods, water pumps, supplements, bedding, and feeding dishes ... including; Toy mirrors for parrots, Heat lamps for snakes, and Berry treats for bunny rabbits and even the latest Tag Engraving ... With such a broad range of stock, the boutique is certainly close to a 'Noah’s Ark'!

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…

Pirates Inn, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 22nd December 2016 0

The bar is decked out like a big ship with gallies, canons and cubby holes ... decking everywhere . there's lots of dark wood, poles, ropes, podiims, bars, chains, pirate hats and guns and craazzzy pirates !

Just Italian Ristorante, Kapparis

Tony Dynamou - 14th February 2020 0

I've been eating here since they opened and its definitely one of my favourites. These days they're swinging towards a Wine Bar Ristorante, combining a modern family atmosphere in a minimalist design setting, it's cool and breezy through the summer and warm and welcoming in the winter with one of the best kitchens in Cyprus!

Melekkis Jewellery and Pandora®, Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 3rd June 2022 0

Melekkis Jewellery is always a hive of activity as many of George’s clients have visited several times before, it’s almost like an annual thing, maybe its because buying jewellery in Cyprus is an excellent investment and more so, that Melekkis provides an unbeatable service at low prices together with a worldwide guarantee to all of his clients.

Polis & Latchi

Tony Dynamou - 23rd July 2018 0

The Village Inn is traditionally British, from the beer garden out back to the golf society you're welcome to join, and the pub grub is just awesome !

December 2015

Tony Dynamou - 2nd March 2016 0

Ed's Note It's December my favourite month ... mainly because we can ski in the Troodos mountains in the morning and swim in the mediterranean...

Octopus Craft Beer by Octo Microbrewery, Sotira

Tony Dynamou - 1st April 2022 0

I asked why their beers are so good; Taras explained, "The biggest difference of Craft Beer is it has more flavour and taste, mainly because it's not filtered or pasteurised, making it a much richer flavour. Craft Beer is like a finger print because we never brew our beer in a bad mood, that's how we are here at Octo and we hope you are just like us" …

Protaras & Pernera

Boasting one of the finest beaches in the world ! Protaras is one of my favourite towns, as it was back in 1991 I came here to work for my first full season and boy…

Octopus Craft Beer by Octo Microbrewery, Sotira

Tony Dynamou - 1st April 2022 0

Café Central, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 8th April 2024 0

I met with Alexandra in Cafe Central, and over a delicious cappuccino I asked her to tell me more, starting with why my cappuccino was so good? She smiled and said, "We selected Robusta coffee beans, from southern and central Africa, because it's an international multi-award winning coffee, with a woody, spicy, slightly bitter taste, that we preferred over Arabica" ... oh and just wait til you see the menu ...

Tony Dynamou - 1st February 2025 0

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.

I Wish it Would Rain Down on Me!

Tony Dynamou - 30th January 2025 0

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!
