The Makronisos beach at Agia Napa Just as beautiful as that of Nissi, the Makronisos beach has a calmer atmosphere. Vladimira Dvorakova / age fotostock;
Originally a small nondescript village on the eastern coast of Cyprus, Ayia Napa has become the place to be on the island. Following the Turkish invasion in 1974, access to the famous nearby resort of Famagouste was closed. The coastal village first served as a weekend destination for the residents of Nicosia before gradually turning into a small tourist village that now extends all the way to Protaras on the other side of Cape Greko. Nowadays, Ayia Napa is known for being the most party-oriented destination of Cyprus in the summer.
