There are certain vacation tips that one must remember before leaving for a vacation to Cyprus. Some of them are:
– All necessary documents including the passport and visa must be kept handy but safe so that you do not face any trouble entering the beach or even during your stay in Cyprus.
If you are not very comfortable carrying your originals everywhere, be sure to always carry their photocopy at least.
– North Cyprus is usually sunny and the weather remains warm. There are also times where there is rain and the weather gets cooler after that. The best option when deciding the kind of clothes to carry, would be to pack some summer as well as some warm clothes for the trip.
– A lot of people go to Cyprus for the purpose of hiking and if you are one of them, then you must be sure to carry appropriate kind of shoes and clothes for hiking.
It may not be very convenient to buy such things at a short moment’s notice there. Also, if there is any kind of booking required for this activity, it will be better to get the tickets booked in advance so that you do not face any disappointment later.
– You may want to do a lot of photography in Cyprus, but remember that is not allowed to do photography in or around the military area there.
