These excellent birdwatching trips are led by conservation-biologist duo Robin Snape and
Damla Beton. Hugely involved with the North Cyprus Society for Protection of Birds,
these two design tailored trips to spot the incredible wealth of bird life in both the Kyrenia

Highly recommended for anyone interested in discovering North Cyprus' wealth of

This gulet offers cruises around the bay and fishing excursions. Captain Musa Aksoy was
the first to start sport-fishing tours in North Cyprus, so if you're after hooking the big
catch, you're in safe hands.
Musa's leisure cruises (for up to 12 passengers) includes snorkelling and swimming at
isolated bays that the bigger boats don't go to.
It's a more intimate and peaceful way to explore the Kyrenia coastline than on the party
boats.

Run by a New Zealander-Cypriot couple, Highline helped a 100-year-old Scottish woman
paraglide her way into the
Guinness Book of Records
as the oldest woman ever to take up
the adventure sport. Weather-permitting, tandem fights run throughout the year from an
altitude of 750m, allowing incredible panoramas across the countryside.
Ladyboss Fishing
FISHING
The same team behind Highline paragliding also operate these great fishing trips which
set out to sea for some angling action on the 34ft
Ladyboss.
Trips are usually five hours
long and your catch of the day can be cooked for you afterwards.
