The pretty mountain village of Karmi is just a few minutes from your Fairmont Holiday Village accommodation and is well worth a visit. If you are walking, follow the road up the mountain through the village of Edremit, past the quaint basket shop and the Treasure Restaurant to reach this fascinating village. Don’t miss the tombs dating back to the Middle Bronze Age which were excavated nearby.

Walkers will appreciate the scenic nature trail in the area. In spring it is particularly beautiful with fields of wild flowers in a palette of bright colours. Other local highlights to look out for are the historic Greek Cypriot Orthodox church and a local art gallery with traditional paintings. Places to eat nearby include a small pub called The Crow’s Nest, the Halfway House Restaurant and theSpot Bar which offers stunning views across to St Hilarion.

You might like to visit St. Hilarion Castle, which is the most preserved ruin of the three preserved castles in Kyrenia. The other two are Buffavento Castle and Kantara Castle. St Hilarion Castle is perched on a rocky crag and is easy to spot with its fairy-tale turrets, towers and windows. Once connected to the Crusades, this castle is said to have inspired the romantic Bavarian castles of King Ludwig and Walt Disney's Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland, California..

Escape Beach Club, also known as Landing Beach, is the closest beach to the resort and is around a  10 minute walk away. It was where the Turkish Navy landed during the peace intervention in 1974.  The historic Peace and Freedom Museum near the beach is a popular local attraction. Escape Beach is well known for its watersports, beach parties and restaurants. Another popular local beach is at Kervansaray, a similar short walk from the Fairmont Holiday Village.

Those wanting to hop on a bus and explore the sights and shops of Kyrenia should ask the hotel staff for directions to the lower road. From there, wave down a local bus which will deliver you into the heart of Kyrenia's bustling shops, restaurants and harbour attractions. Boat trips, Kyrenia Castle and several museums make this a top place to visit with plenty of bars, restaurants and nightlife.
