Once a sleepy fishing village Ayia Napa is now considered a top ten destination for the young and lively crowd.
The fountain in Seferis square is the main meeting place as night falls as the bars and pubs fill up with holiday makers. There are plenty of nightclubs, theme bars and state of the art discos to keep everyone happy.
The clubbing season kicks of in June and lasts all summer until October but a few clubs do open all year round.
Club entry can be pretty costly in the peak season so bring plenty of cash with you.
Licencing hours Cyprus lasts nearly all day starting at 9.00am and running through to 2am. Then you can head straight to a club and drink till 5pm. If you are still thirsty you can still be served until 7am in some clubs!
Noise regulation means most bars turn their music off at 1.30am. Then it's time to head for the clubs.
The Cypriot’s appreciation for the good life and good times comes to the fore after the sun sets, with bars, discos, nightclubs and bouzouki clubs open well into the early hours of the morning. Most hotels have their own nightly entertainment with a resident band, and Greek nights with folk dancing are offered. The resort’s clubbing scene is legendary with big name DJ’s appearing frequently at popular clubs like Starsky & Hutch (70's Funk, Soul and Jazz disco), Grease (70’s – 90’s disco) and Insomnia (Garage, House and R&B).
But Ayia Napa is not just for the young and lively. It’s a great all round resort with a choice of entertainment for all the family. Attractive tavernas serving authentic local food can be found alongside restaurants serving international dishes- Indian, Chinese, Mexican to name but a few.
Generally Ayia Napa is clean, well ordered and favoured by all types of holidaymakers. Those who do not enjoy noise and bright lights, however, are advised to stay clear of the central monastery square area, which is where most of the popular nightclubs are situated. The main clubbing season is between June and September, and during this period the resort is packed with young people from all over Europe. Older holiday makers may prefer to enjoy the resort during the ‘shoulder’ months (April, May, October and November), when the weather is still good, the sea relatively warm, but the tempo quieter. The island can be windy, but the geographic locations of the surrounding beaches means that it is possible to find a sheltered beach even on windy days. Nissi Beach tends to be overcrowded, but there are other beaches within easy reach where it is possible to enjoy peace and quiet.
