Aiya Nappa - Cyprus

We took the local Famagusta bus to Aiya Nappa which went via Protaras town and Greko bay. For 2 euros for a return trip where you can hop on and off all day was a bargain. (osea.com.cy/index.php) However the age and quality of the bus did vary somewhat but could be put down to part of the travelling experience. If anyone has been on the Yellow vintage buses in Malta you will get the idea. Having said that the council has invested substantially in improving bus routes and improving timetables. That said don't rely on the timings we waited for over 35 minutes for a bus that was supposed to be there on the hour. If you need to be somewhere on time get a taxi there are plenty of them and most look like limo.

Still on he subject of busses there is a Red Tour bus that does trips around villiages and the ghost town of Famagusta but this does not start till the second week of May.

 The party town of Aiya Nappa was more of a ghost town. With many of the bars and resturants still closed from the winter hibernation. It was hard to imagine the place sprawling with teenagers that have escaped for a holiday "Wiv me mates". I`m sure give a few more weeks the place will be transformed to it`s busy self.

For the more adventurous if you head down to the harbour you can go paragliding,jetskiing ride a doughnut or take a trip on  glass bottom boat. There is the popular yellow submarine style but this James Bond looking Galaxy caught my eye. Morning trips 11:00 ~ 14:30 are 20 euro. Afternoon trips 16:00 - 18:00 are 40 euro the trip is also longer.
There are simply loads of boat trip options along the harbour from 5 euro upwards it reall depends how long you want on the water and if food is provided.

You can take a trip on the The Black Pearl,which leaves daily from the harbour. Join Jack Sparrow and the pirates with lunch provided.

One of the things that you probably will not see unless you take a trip on the Shirley Valentine is this surfing dog Keo who takes a break with Captain Kristos in Greko Bay

As I am doing this from the Kindle I will add the pictures and edit it later so excuse the typos.
