Beach near Nicosia, Cyprus

Nicosia Travel Guide

Cyprus

Nicosia is a city of 200,452 people in Cyprus. It sits inland rather than on the coast, so it is better suited to a city stay than a beach-based holiday.

Travellers arriving by air can use Ercan Airport (ECN), the airport serving Nicosia. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so a beach visit requires travelling farther afield.
