Kyrenia Beach Restaurant

Top choice in Cyprus


You won't have to push the boat out too far to enjoy superb catch-of-the-day seafood at this long-standing, popular restaurant. Its stunning beachside setting means shoals of families turn up at weekends, so come early to grab a table; you can't reserve in advance. An insider's tip: try the swordfish simply grilled in tinfoil. Delicious.
