Welcome my friend.

1) False, in most of the clubs you can enter for free or get a free entrance ticket from PRs giving them out in spots around Napa.

2)True.Advice: get some liquer from the Duty Free shops in the airport. Not sure whats the limit in the quanity u can pass from the customs.

3) Abyss and Castle from what i know.

4) Not sure.

You can do plenty of stuff:
1) Offcourse hanging out on the beach all day.
2)Visit the Ayia Napa WaterPark.
3)Go to Cavo Greko and make a high jump into the see from the cave rocks next to Profitis Hlias litle church(not sure if this is the name).
4)Bunji Jumbin (I havent done that, Cost:30CYP i think).
5)Clubbing.
6)Go to River Reggae for an after party ( I love that place).

...and many many more enjoyable activities.
I wish u have lots of fun there 8)

Thx for the fast reply, one more thing about prices in napa how much does a pack of cigarettes cost in CYP? How much a bottle of beer and a bottle of smirnoff ice all from local store?

And how much do drinks cost in nightclubs?

Cigarettes - Somewhere between 2-3CYP
Beer and smirnof ice - Somewhere between 1-2CYP
Drinks in Clubs - Smirnoff ice/beer:2CYP, Vodka/Coctails 4-5

Dont take my word for the prices because i havent been there since last year.

Welcome my friend.

1) It WAS the case that most people could get into most nightclubs for free (unless you looked Cypriot, whereby you'd have to pay) .... it's becoming more the case that they're making a lot of people pay, especially on weekends.... but you can still get in for free if you find a bar dishing out the free entrances, but usually not to major clubs.... if you want free entrance to castle, try the Marinella Bar in the Square which offered us free entrancs there which only worked on certain days, but still worked eventually.... not on weekends though....

2) Absolutely positively NOT TRUE!!!!! Yiannis, things have changed.... since Cy joined the EU the prices of alcohol in the shops have really come down (though they only seem to have gone up in the bars and clubs). A bottle of Gordons gin at the local store in Limassol costs about 6 CYP and good'ol Johnnie wasnt too expensive at around 7 CYP if I remember correctly, and most alcohol was priced around this range.... of course, if you're really desperate for intoxication, you can buy a bottle of local "vodka" and other alcohol substances for the ridiculous price of 2 CYP or something, but i highly discourage you from doing so....


3) Dunno bout Techno.... probably Castle yeah cos they have 3 Arenas, the other clubs change music most days so check out the flyers to see where to go.... just skip Black'n'white (R'n'B exclusive club).... Coyote Ugly had a trancey room upstairs and entrance to that club was only 2 CYP!!!

4) What the crap is that?

You can find other stuff to do... like Yiannis said, bungee jumping, waterpark, bicycling to cape Greco or by motorbike, you can checkout Protoras and theres a nice show called "Dancing on water or ice or something like that" :) I guess you can always go down to Larnaca by bus but there's really not much to see there..... other places are too far away. you can cross to the Turkish side to see Famagusta, but I don't know how you would go about doing that...... hrmmmmm dunno, ask around when you get there....

I go to Ayia Napa every couple of weeks or so and always get a pocketfull of flyers for a free entrance here or a free entrance there. Find a bar called the Jasmine Inn and speak to the MC at the end of the night. He will sort you out with free tickets to The Castle and for afterwards The River Reggae. By the end of the night, the MC loses the plot and just has a laugh instead, great guy, very funny too!

There's a place in Larnaca that does all Quad Biking excursions which is definitely worth a visit. Think they are called Jungle Bikes or something along them lines. They do pretty good deals, and a mean BBQ!

Believe me, you won't run out of things to do in Ayia Napa!

The guy who MC's the Jasmine Inn is as a nice guy but the music he plays is crap. Castle doesnt play Techno / Trance...(I should know, I was asked to lay there)...and Abyss plays some drum and base but not Techno or Trance either. If you want that kind of music...best thing is to go to Nicosia or any of the places the locals hang out. Ayia Napa traditionally plays black music.
