Social Activities in Cyprus:

From every small detail during the trainings to making your stay in Cyprus one to remember, we want to welcome each one of you in the traditional warm and hospitable Cypriot way! For this reason we tried to gather some information for you.

First things first… here is an advice:

If you are joining us from abroad make sure to have some time to enjoy the warm temperatures of our island (around 30°C), the turquoise beaches and the traditional villages of Cyprus!

Cyprus offers an abundance of opportunities to get your heart pumping, from mountain climbing and cycling, to scuba diving and small boat trips, or…. just relaxing by the pool/beach enjoying our Mediterranean cuisine. Whether you are staying for a short or long visit you can choose different activities as per your liking – Cyprus’s short driving distances can accommodate every taste.

A few recommendations for activities may include: a historic walking tour by the Venetian wall in Nicosia the only divided capital of Europe; experience the nightlife, the traditional folk music and meze taverns to roof top views and fusion cuisine at some of the most prestigious hotels in Nicosia; beach sports or a day at waterpark or Nissi beach; a road trip to sea cities including Larnaka, Limassol or Paphos; road trip to white-stone built vine villages or picturesque Lefkara where the Cypriot folk needlecraft art is born.
