Famagusta town
The eastern coastal area of Gazimagusa (Famagusta) Bay is one long, very fine beach
with excellent facilities and clean, safe bathing and snorkelling. This harbour town
is a fantastic destination for summer holidays as the bay itself is an expanse of
golden sands. It is also very close to the old town, an outdoor museum of architecture
and ancient ruins. Restored and pedestrianised since 1996, the old town of Gazimagusa
is a veritable outdoor museum and a real delight to explore, soak up the sunshine
and people-
