Water Sports In Cyprus

By:Derek Both


One of the many reasons why Cyprus holidays are popular with so many tourists every year is because of the abundance of water sports available. There are so many activities for everyone to try regardless of whether you have never done water sports before or if you are a waterskiing champion. Some of the sports you can give a try include jet skiing, waterskiing, wakeboarding, windsurfing, parasailing, canoeing, kayaking and banana and tube rides.

In recent years Ayia Napa has become well - known for being the clubbing central of Cyprus. As a result of this it is a common misconception that Cyprus holidays are all about drinking and large groups of youngsters. While this can be true in resorts like Ayia Napa, there is so much more to Cyprus such as the extensive list of water sports available.

If you make your way to the beautiful Paphos Harbour you can take part in some of the exciting water sports available. From paragliding to jet bikes and self - drive speed boats to fly fishing, there is so much to keep you busy at this resort when going on Cyprus holidays.

Another popular area for water sports is Latchi which is located on the north western coast of the island. On the edge of the Akamas peninsula, the area has been transformed into an attractive tourist resort with endless water sport and diving possibilities. If you think Cyprus holidays are about trying new adventures then this is the place to be as you can try water sports that you've never even heard of before.

The Laser Funboat is a safe and easy boat which is ideal for beginners or those who prefer more relaxing activities. If you prefer something that is going to get your heart rate up then try the Dart 18 Catamaran which is all about power and speed. Tube rides are also fun and exciting but slightly tamer than the catamaran.

The coast of Agia Napa is considered to be the finest regarding beaches in Cyprus. Sandy beaches cover the area which attracts thousands of tourists every year. All along the beaches of Agia Napa facilities for all sea sports are provided including water - skiing, wind - surfing, sailing canoes, pedals, motor boats, scooters, speed - boats, parachutes, scuba - diving and more.
