The Larnaca District
Cyprus is a small mediterranean island with year-round good weather. Summer stretches from May to October with high temperatures, clear blue skies and gentle cooling breezes on the coast. Rain is rare in the summer. In the winter temperatures are lower but it still doesn't rain much. Remarkably it is possible to swim at the beach and ski in the Troodos mountains in the same day.
What marks Cyprus out is the warm friendliness of the locals. Try out a few words of Greek and you will have friends for life!
Oroklini / Oroklini Village area
Oroklini is a quiet rural village on the outskirts of Larnaca on the south-eastern Cyprus coast. It stretches from Oroklini hill to the beach in Larnaca Bay, 2 miles away. Oroklini is about 50m above sea level at the foot of an oblong hill (208m high).
Although Oroklini is a village, there is certainly no shortage of things to do in the area. There is an internet cafe at the Lithos Tavern in the village, also horse-riding, donkey rides, ten-pin bowling, bars & a playground for the kids.
For those who enjoy walking, Oroklini Hill is a few minutes walk away from our apartment. From the top there are stunning views and on a clear day it is possible to see as far as Stavrovouni Monastery, the Salt Lakes at Larnaca and the Troodos Mountains. If you don't want to walk up the hill you can hire a 4x4, a mountain bike or quad bikes to drive up and around it.
Oroklini's Yanathes beach is 3km from the centre of the village. It stretches along Larnaca Bay for 2km and is suitable for families and couples alike. This pleasant sandy beach has been awarded a coveted blue flag. It is protected by lifeguards and artificial reefs and offers calm, clean water. You can fish, swim, snorkel, scuba dive and play beach volleyball here. There is a car park, a promenade, showers, toilets, a beach snack bar and restaurant. The beach has parasols and chairs available for hire in season. If you like to scuba dive there are several good diving centres in the area and you are not far from one of the top ten diving sites in the world, the Zenobia. You can also take boat trips from the marina at Larnaca.

Guestbook for Our Cyprus Apartment
We had a fabulous stay, here in Oroklini. The peace and quiet is such a contrast to some of the other tourist places on the island: Michele, Andy & Christos.
The apartment is very comfortable and well-equipped. We loved Oroklini so much that we have bought a holibay home whilst being here: Brian & Jackie.
We have had a wonderful stay, unfortunately all things come to an end. The flat was great. All conveniences good: John, Rebecca, Daniella and Maroulla.
