CYPRUS CRUISES - Cruise destinations
from Cyprus.
General information
about cruises from Cyprus
As the easternmost island in the Mediterranean, Cyprus is a natural
point of departure for exploring this amazingly diverse region. All
year round locally based cruise lines, departing from Limassol port,
help locals and tourists alike get a firsthand perspective of the splendors
of ancient Egypt, major attractions in Israel and Lebanon and, of course,
the Greek islands and even further afield to other European destinations.
Please note that for various reasons, cruises may not operate to all
destination countries at all times.
These
cruises are typically of two to five days duration and make use of Cyprus
geographic position to eliminate the need to book hotels in the selected
ports of call. For example, on the popular two-day cruise from Cyprus
to Egypt which lies only 200 miles south of Cyprus, passengers overnight
on board, spend a full day exploring the Great Pyramids at Giza and
overnight on the ship again enroute to Cyprus |

are operated by large and comfortable cruise ships which offer full

preferences, including departure days and destinations.
