While Britain basks in Summer heat, with temperatures above 20OC, North Cyprus is experiencing cool and unusual weather. Kyrenia was covered in hailstones making the town look like a Christmas picture in the Alps and just before that two waterspouts were spotted off the coast.

If you have a great retirement or pension plan that will allow you to take off and book a holiday in North Cyprus, you’re going to fall in love with this area and possibly never want to leave! If you have spent much time at the beach in Florida or on the coast of California, you may be asking yourself, what’s so great about North Cyprus and why should I plan a holiday there?
