Kyrenia Harbour

Cyprus / Turkish controlled area / Girne /
In its heyday the town harbour was lined with warehouses in which were stored the fruits of the countryside whilst they awaited export. The harbour is currently used largely for pleasure craft, and the buildings are now mostly all restaurants, with outdoor tables along the water. A larger harbour is located a few miles east of the town centre, used by commercial shipping and ferries from the Turkish mainland.

  • Please keep political and non-feedback comments to a minimum.
  • A good place to eat or just sit and watch the day go by.
  • I visited here in August of 1994, and it is a truly impressive place. The food around the harbour and town is fantastic and I would love to go back here.
