Cyprus Tourism

About Cyprus
Uniquely positioned at the crossroad between Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, Cyprus is easily accessible for all people whether coming from Europe or the rest of the world.

Today, Cyprus is a modern country and has been a member of the European Union since 2004. With its European culture and civilisation that stretches back to antiquity, it has much to offer including year-round sunshine, alluring beaches, vineyards, historical sites, and a family-oriented culture of open-hearted people.

Currently, the Cyprus Government is placing a lot of emphasis on promoting Cyprus as a health care destination with a current annual expenditure on health of over 700 million Euros, representing 6% of gross national product. The Cyprus health industry bears an excellent reputation of the essential post operative care after any kind of surgery where the Mediterranean climate, with its dry summers and mild winters, is ideal for recuperating both for the patient but also for people accompanying them.
