Then for dinner we would recommend Almond Tree restaurant (a must! but book a table as it gets very busy), its near Sinya estate. I left Whats on where blue booklet on the table in the living room so you can find the number in there. Also we have on site restaurant at Seaterra reserve which is good.

Stone Castle Restaurant, located beautifully on the shores of Esentepe, right by the sea, is a popular restaurant for expats as well as locals. The restaurant resembles a small stone castle, hence the name.
You can easily spend an entire Sunday afternoon here with the family. It is very genuine and cosy and also a great venue for festivities. Sit outside in the summer time and enjoy the beautiful sunsets the northern east coast has to offer and inside during the colder winter months, with the warming open fire.
The staff is pleasant and helpful and the menu is extensive with something for everyone. Welcome to dine with beautiful mountain views and breathtaking sunsets.

But to enjoy the original you must visit one of Niazi’s restaurants! Here all the meat is grilled in front of the guests on an open charcoal grill that stands in the middle of the room. The meat is locally produced by “free range farming” in Cyprus, and the flavours are the result of decades of experience and tradition. A wide selection of international and Turkish wines is served with the food, and desserts can be chosen from the open buffet with lots of homemade sweet pastries.
Niazi’s Restaurant is getting widely popular, also with the European guests. The customer is always the focus and the service is attentive and thorough. In addition, the venue is incredibly cosy and homely, while i

Parks & Nature
Our favourite beach which has facilities and nice sandy beach is Kaplica - when you come out of the Seaterra Reserve, turn right and then left and continue along the coastal road for about 15 minutes. There are free showers, changing rooms and toilets. Sun beds are 10TL (and they have beach ones and grass ones). There is a lovely beach cafe and an awesome fish restaurant. It gets very busy on Sundays as its a family day in Cyprus.
