Cyprus cruises

White sands, cyan seas, rolling vineyards – Cyprus has some swoon-worth scenery.

Where we sail in Cyprus

Our cruises in Cyprus drop you off on the island’s southern belly, in Limassol. This coastal city’s perfectly placed for exploring. A former European Capital of Culture, Paphos, is a 50-minute drive south, while Ayia Napa’s beaches and bars are just over an hour away. Plus, book a Cyprus Cruise & Stay holiday and you can decamp to Paphos for a hotel stay – either before or after your trip.

Aphrodite’s Isle

Cyprus lives up to its Island of Love label. Over the years, Marc Antony, Richard the Lionheart and even the Goddess of Love herself have all been won over by its charms. First off, there’s the weather. This place basks in sun 326 days a year, with mild winter temperatures of 15-20°C. Then there are the beaches, which range from electric-blue bays to lengthy stretches of blonde sand. Finally, you can fill your boots with history at the Tombs of the Kings, crumbling castles and mountain monasteries.
