Hotels in Northern Cyprus, Cyprus

Northern Cyprus is a sun-soaked region on the island's north coast, famous for its Crusader castles and long golden beaches along the Mediterranean Sea. Summers are hot (95°F/35°C) and dry, perfect for swimming at Alagadi Beach or exploring the 13th-century St. Hilarion Castle where Richard the Lionheart once stayed. Winters are mild (60°F/16°C) and rainy, best for wandering the ancient Roman ruins at Salamis or catching live Turkish folk music in Kyrenia's old harbor.
