Greece remains the most visited destination for travelers from Cyprus, with close to 600,000 Cypriots visiting in the previous year. The figures reflect continued travel flows between the two countries as tourism patterns evolve.
New Initiatives Targeting Cypriot Travelers
At an event organised by the Greek National Tourism Organisation, officials presented measures aimed at maintaining and expanding interest from Cypriot travelers. Athena Spakouri, board director at the organisation, said the approach includes promoting both established destinations and less-visited regions, with a focus on local experiences.

Enhanced Connectivity And Cultural Ties
Travel links between Greece and Cyprus continue to support tourism activity. Konstantinos Kollias, Greek Ambassador to Cyprus, referred to frequent flights, short travel times, and ferry connections such as the Limassol–Piraeus route. These links contribute to consistent travel demand and reflect ongoing cultural and economic connections between the two countries.
Diversification Of Tourism Offerings
Tourism strategy also includes expanding beyond traditional beach travel into segments such as cultural tourism, religious travel, gastronomy, agrotourism, and ecotourism. This broader offering is intended to attract different visitor groups and extend travel activity across seasons. Airlines, including Aegean Airlines, Sky Express, and Cyprus Airways, are expected to support connectivity through expanded schedules.
