Cyprus is one of the most popular tourist centers that has been attracting Russian tourists for over 20 years. For our compatriots, it has long become an image of an ideal summer holiday, and stories about what a wonderful sea in Cyprus is the envy of those who have not had time to visit it yet. This island is divided into two parts - the Republic of Cyprus and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, which is a partially recognized state association under the jurisdiction of Turkey. But the center of Russian tourism in this case is the Republic of Cyprus.
First of all, this fabulous island attracts our tourists, of course, with its beaches. Which sea borders Cyprus? Very warm - Mediterranean. The island is located in its eastern part. But such an answer to this question from the point of view of geography is not entirely accurate. So what is the sea in Cyprus? Cypriot, of course. It is isolated as an integral part of the Mediterranean Sea. Moreover, its northeastern part (the one that washes the shores of Cyprus and Asia Minor) is called the Cilician Sea. The eastern part, which lies betweenisland and Middle Eastern shores, called the Levantine Sea.
And what will an ordinary tourist answer if you ask him about what kind of sea is in Cyprus? The first answer that can be heard is: "Clean". At the same time, a dreamy smile will illuminate the person’s face - such a sea is not forgotten for a long time.
The sea in Cyprus is really the cleanest, no wonder many of the beaches of this island were awarded the "blue flag" of the European Union for environmental cleanliness and developed infrastructure. All beaches in Cyprus are city property, and their visit is absolutely free. But you will have to pay about 1-2 euros for renting beach equipment: awnings, umbrellas, sun loungers.
In addition, the Cyprus Sea is one of the warmest and s altiest parts of the Mediterranean. Due to the high s alt content, almost all marine life is concentrated in coastal waters, which gives room for diving. The Cyprus Sea is also rich in coral reefs, which are the dream of every deep-sea diver to see. But it should be remembered that the authorities of Cyprus meticulously monitor the rise of archaeological treasures from the bottom of the sea by tourists. Therefore, despite the fact that finding them in the surrounding waters is a simple matter, it is not worth trying to take away the historical heritage as souvenirs.
Cyprus. What is the sea? Not only crystal clear, but also warm. The average temperature of sea water off the coast of the island is about 15-17 degrees in the winter months, or rather, from November to May. In summer, the water warms up to22-27 degrees.
What are the main places in Cyprus for a beach holiday? Of course, the main resort is Larnaca. Limassol, Ayia Napa - the capital of the club life of the island, the city of Paphos, where the famous Aphrodite Bay is located, can also boast of excellent beaches. If you haven't made up your mind about where to spend your vacation yet, consider visiting these cities. Then, upon returning home, you will enthusiastically tell your friends and acquaintances: “Oh, what a sea in Cyprus!”
