Adventure parks and activities when visiting Cyprus

For many families, Cyprus is an ideal holiday destination due to its abundance of child-friendly activities. In Paphos, you’ll find Aphrodite Water Park. The park has high-speed slides and rides for teenage thrill seekers and a kids’ pool for young children.

Alternatively, families holidaying in Ayia Napa can treat themselves to a four-hour cruise on the Black Pearl pirate ship. Kids will experience a treasure hunt and a pirate show, as well as a pirate-themed buffet for lunch. There are many swimming stops along the ship’s route, so the adults can explore the natural beauty of the Mediterranean waters. This includes the Ayia Napa sea caves and Konnos Bay at Cape Greco.

Natural Wonders to Explore Visiting Cyprus

Most of the time, kids are entertained with just the sights and sounds of nature. Explore Adonis Baths in Paphos for an experience of wild swimming and waterfall exploring. Avakas Gorge is also a monumental sight that’s sure to inspire wonder in your little ones. Flamingo spotting at the salt lakes of Limassol and Larnaca is an unusual activity that’ll be an experience liked by both adults and kids.

Older children can try their hand at wakeboarding and parasailing to spend time at sea. Younger children can benefit from hunting for seashells on the shore or spotting ocean creatures in shallow waters.

Child-friendly food while visiting Cyprus

Taking a fussy eater on holiday can be difficult. Luckily, Cyprus offers plenty of the child-friendly foods that your kids might be used to eating back at home. You can buy a few staples like fruits and veg in the local supermarket. Alternatively, there are lots of exciting new tastes to be sampled. There are various kinds of souvlaki, a popular food choice for many, as well as pasticcio, a hearty Cypriot pasta dish.

As well as delicious food, you will find that many local restaurants in Cyprus come with a playground in tow. That’s just one of the many ways that the locals aim to keep kids entertained. This makes for the perfect spot if you want to spread your family dinner over a couple of hours and spend some time chatting while the kids play nearby.
