A recent list compiled by Flight Network, the largest online travel agent of Canada, places Nissi Beach in Ayia Napa, Cyprus at number 25 out of 50! So how did they come up with this list? Well it was very well researched, with contributions to the final results coming from over 1200 agencies, bloggers, journalists and magazine editors from all over the globe. When you consider that every single beach in the whole world was taken into account for this list, it really is a great achievement for Nissi Beach to be featured on it.

Nissi Beach has always been very popular, both with the locals, and the many tourists who visit the island every year. It really is a beautiful spot. The water is so clear, and reflects the sunshine so the ocean always look perfectly blue. The perfect place to relax and unwind, enjoying the unspoilt panoramic views. Take a stroll across the fine white sand into the sea, and you’ll find it gently sloping. You can walk far out into the ocean without getting out of your depth, so it’s a great place to take the whole family. Cyprus has many gorgeous beaches, but there really is something extra special about Nissi Beach which makes it so memorable for all those who spend time there.

So why did Nissi Beach place so highly in this list?

It’s most likely because Nissi Beach really does have everything. Of course there’s the obvious, warm, clean water, a safe environment with life guards in attendance and breathtaking views. Enjoying 266 days of sunshine a year perhaps also helped. But Nissi Beach also has so much more to offer. Stay into the evening, and you can dance the night away at a party hosted by a world-famous DJ. The beach is very accessible and there’s also the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of water sports. 

Spend a day at this beach and you won’t have to go far to have access to everything you need. Right on the beach are toilets and changing rooms, comfortable sunbeds with shade-giving umbrellas, and close by you’ll find so many restaurants offering every type of cuisine you can think of. Fancy a drink? No problem, just spend time at one of the bars or cafes, watching the world go by.

Nissi Beach is also so well located. You’re close to amazing places to stay, as well as some fantastic hiking trails and important sites of great historic interest. To be on the same list as famous beaches such Bondi Beach and Miami Beach is quite amazing, but for anyone who has ever visited Nissi Beach, you’ll understand that it’s a very well deserved accolade.
