Up-and-coming resort
After the capital, Nicosia, Limassol is the biggest city in Cyprus. And, as one of the world’s up-and-coming holiday destinations, it’s a great place to visit before or after your cruise. Indeed, the resort has much to offer visitors, from its golden sandy beaches, museums and archaeological sites to its lively calendar of events and array of nightlife. If you’re looking for an all-singing, all-dancing location for your next trip, then look no further than Limassol.
Sun, sand and sea
After all that exploring, the resort’s sandy beaches provide the perfect location to re-energize. Lady’s Mile Beach, which is a short drive from the city centre away, is a well-maintained, family-friendly beach. Since its situated away from the main tourist stretch, this beach is usually quiet and is a great place to spot interesting wildlife. Button Beach is another peaceful, unspoiled site which is a hit with the locals. However, if you prefer a more bustling seaside setting, Pissouri is a busy resort between Limassol and Paphos that’s equipped for many watersports.
