Learn more about hotels in Famagusta

Famagusta, located on the east coast of Cyprus, is a historical gem embedded in the heart of the Mediterranean. From its early days as the small port of Arsinoe, Famagusta developed into a significant trading hub along the ancient Silk Road, and later distinguished itself as "the city of 365 churches" during the Middle Ages. Its medieval prestige is reflected in the fortified city centre, constructed by the Venetians in the 15th and 16th centuries.

Although it has experienced political upheaval, such as the Turkish invasion of 1974, Famagusta continues to flourish. The city stands as an important commercial hub in Northern Cyprus, with growing industries of tourism, education, construction and more. Recent efforts are focused on making Famagusta an attractive destination for international congresses, demonstrating its dynamic blend of history and modernity.

When to visit Famagusta

With its Mediterranean climate, Famagusta is a year-round destination. However, the best time to visit is during May and June, where the climate is perfect for exploring, and the potential for rainfall is minimal. Bathed in sunshine, the warmest months of July, August, and September are ideal for enjoying the outdoor activities and swimming in the clear Cypriot waters. Although the tourist season hits its peak during the winter months, the climate remains agreeable throughout the year.

Avoid December if you prefer to steer clear of the rain, but if you're searching for the authentic Cypriot experience, these showers merely add another facet to Famagusta’s charm. Whether you're watching time-worn architecture come alive in the rain or lounging under the sun, Famagusta welcomes its visitors with open arms at any time of the year.
