Family Holidays in Cyprus

If you’re planning a family escape this year, you can’t go far wrong with a holiday in Cyprus. Said to be the birthplace of the goddess Aphrodite, she certainly left a distinctive legacy – one of soul-stirring beauty that’s evident in everything from its bewitching coastline and golden sands, to its craggy mountains and lush wooded hillsides.

So, beauty aside, what makes Cyprus such a great place for family holidays? A plentiful supply of great beach resorts for one, ranging from loud and lively towns to quiet, laid-back retreats. There’s a wide range of activities too, with stacks of activities for kids of all ages and things to see and do for Mom and Dad too.

In the Larnaca region of Cyprus you’ve got lovely Protarus, a great resort with a lovely long stretch of golden sand and a gorgeous coastline that’s littered with rocky coves – perfect for exploring with the kids. You could even have a crack at rockpooling. By night, you’ll find plenty of family-friendly restaurants to enjoy, many of which have varied menus – perfect for little fussy eaters.

There are plenty of great resorts in the Paphos region too. Whether you’re after cheap holidays to Cyprus or a laid-back luxury retreat, in Paphos you’ll find all sorts of different holidays to suit families of various tastes and budgets. In Paphos itself, you’ll find a bustling town with a lovely harbour, not to mention stacks of nearby historical sites, such as Aphrodite’s Rock and the Tombs of the Kings.
