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…

Sunfish Divers, PADI 5 Star IDC Centre, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 3rd April 2023 0

... with one of the longest dive seasons in the world and some of the most popular dive sites on the island due to clear, calm, warm water without dangerous currents and high tides. It has a variety of natural features such as caves, canyons, and huge drop off's which are safely accessible even on the occasional rough day ... plus a couple of new wrecks environmentally sectioned off to encourage plants and marine life!

Tony Dynamou - 27th November 2019 0

This dance bar is swinging into a new era, with Mixalis in charge these days, he's aiming at getting rid of the old cobwebs and instilling something younger and a little different ... it's now just a late bar with lots of good clubbing music and a cool vibe oh and they are keeping the dancing girls to keep you company 😉

DeJaVu aka Bill & Ems Band, Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 26th March 2023 0

I was delighted to be invited to catch Bill and Ems, aka Dejavu, playing live at Lithos Bar & Grill in Larnaca. On that night they were joined by Andreas, their drummer, and as a trio, they go by the name 'Strings Attached' I really loved this gig so much, especially their covers of Fever, and Hotel California, so I grabbed the chance to ask Bill if we could get together for a chat.

Fish

admin - 2nd March 2016 0

If you've never had the pleasure, you must try a Fish Meze win Cyprus. It's a selection of seasonal fish and seafood dishes brought to the table nice and slowly, a lovely way to try lots of different dishes and a great way to socialise …

Ink 2 Skin Tattoo Crew, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 30th June 2019 0

Valentino also sometimes uses Chopstick & Needle ... this unique style of Tattooing without a machine, he says "is better for Finger Tattoos, and Line Design, its manual application where you can control the pressure", allowing him to apply more pressure to finger tattoos so that they go deeper and last longer ... Valentino said it's a good way to get your first tattoo coz it hurts less ...

The Lingo Shop ’til You Drop!

Tony Dynamou - 11th December 2017 0

Our regular readers will have noticed that we’ve moved on from the basics, which you can still check out on the web The Lingo - Basics Course and with the huge influx of ex-pats in Cyprus this is one of our Advanced Courses, or as one would say “Ya dou’s ex’ib’nous” or aka ''for those in the know'' 😉

The Happy Friar, Limassol

Tony Dynamou - 11th December 2017 0

you really must try The Happy Friar, run by Ian and Jill from good old blighty, serving arguably the best Fish 'n Chips in town, together with Mushy Peas, a slice and a cuppa, and good old service with a smile and great banter, you'll feel like you're back home in your local chippy!

Cannabis Store, Limassol & Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 23rd October 2023 0

Cannabidiol has no psychoactive properties in the body, in simple words you don't 'get wrecked'. It helps contribute to the overall well-being of the body and reduces body pains and muscle spasms. It is an effective anti-inflammatory and helps with diseases such as in my case cancer, but also psoriasis, epilepsy, depression, anxiety, loss of appetite, and many, many more. It also helps reduces stress, stops nausea and vomiting, and is antioxidant and neuroprotective ... It's worth opening your mind to natural remedies and CBD is truly amazing!

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…

Chloe’s Chinese Restaurant, Paphos

Tony Dynamou - 22nd February 2016 0

I love the menu which explains the recipes and regional influences, the free Chinese horoscope booklet and the interior design which is traditional, with spacious comfortable seating, separate small rooms for a little privacy, banqueting rooms for up to 50 people, and the view overlooking the harbour through beautifully etched glass windows is breath taking ... and the overall ambience will just carry you all the way into the east.

The Mermaid Cruise, Protaras

Tony Dynamou - 15th July 2024 0

The story begins as any good story should; 'Once upon a time' there were two mermaids ... the kids all listen with a sense of anticipation ... then there's a fun treasure hunt led by their onboard characters; Pirate Billy Bones and the delightful Tinkerbell to keep the nippers occupied.

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…

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 ...

Bedrock Cafe, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 25th June 2018 0

It looks stunning from outside, recreated to look like the inside of a cave, with huge Dinosaur bones, arches and skeleton relics everywhere and I just love the Lizard stools ... all the crew are dressed up in character and of course Fred parked the Flintstones car outside, so don't forget to get a selfie or two ! Oh, there's big screens for all the live sports and a pool table and a cool beer garden with cool kid's play area out back.

CyproNatura, Ayia Napa

Tony Dynamou - 10th July 2017 0

Getting into the natural food thing isn't as hard as you think ! Replacing things like crisps and biscuits, with really fresh nuts and totally fresh, dried, and sugarless fruits is easy, tbh, knowing you're not putting rubbish inside you is a fulfilling emotion and actually I discovered ages ago the tastes are just awesome !

The Sunset then the Tribes Danced all Night

Tony Dynamou - 12th July 2019 0

I have to say, listening to house with your toes on the sand and the waves splashing behind you and pure house pumping outta I don't know how many Watts but I expect they could hear it in the City, 10 miles away lol ...

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!

L.P.M. Garage Service Station, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 5th July 2021 0

Lucas then gained many more certificates, the wall behind his desk proudly showing the extensive effort this car lover has put into his business. Opening back in 2005 Lucas has made it his job to study and keep up to date with technology, as these days you can just plug your car into a computer in Paralimni and BMW in Germany tell you what it needs, amazingly to the 'fraction of a litre' of engine oil.

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!
