Along with such obvious options like hiding in the Maldives, there is another romantic spot – Cyprus.  Why Cyprus is a perfect honeymoon destination? This beautiful island has everything you need— stunning beaches, cozy towns, and breathtaking views.

In addition, traveling from Armenia to Cyprus is super easy with direct flights, making it a convenient choice. The island’s warm Mediterranean climate and stunning landscapes make it an ideal spot. Those planning a wedding this autumn will be happy to know that Cyprus is perfect from September to November. First, it’s less crowded than in summer. Besides, temperatures range from the mid-20s to 30s Celsius.

If you are still wondering whether to pick Cyprus for a honeymoon, we have some ideas about spending the most romantic week of your life.  

Visit Aphrodite’s Rock

Aphrodite’s Rock is a must-visit for honeymooners in Cyprus. This stunning sea stack, located off the coast near Paphos, is said to be the birthplace of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty. According to legend, she emerged from the sea foam here. It’s a place of great significance and is mentioned in ancient Greek mythology.

Visiting Aphrodite’s Rock during sunrise or sunset adds extra magic. The soft light reflecting off the waves creates a dreamy atmosphere, perfect for quiet moments together. Can you imagine a better place for a romantic walk?

Relax on the Beaches

Cyprus beaches

If you’re all about beach vibes, Cyprus won’t disappoint. Spend your days lounging on some of Cyprus’s most beautiful beaches. For example, Nissi Beach in Ayia Napa or Fig Tree Bay in Protaras are popular for their crystal-clear waters and soft sands.

You can also rent a car to find a less-crowded beach. Imagine yourself on soft sands with the sound of waves in the background — it’s pure bliss. But for something truly special, head to the Blue Lagoon. This spot is famous for its turquoise waters perfect for swimming and snorkeling. You can get there by boat or, if you’re feeling adventurous, rent a 4×4 and hit the off-road trails. Even though it’s popular, the lagoon is spacious enough to feel like your own little paradise.

Sail on a Sunset Cruise

A romantic cruise is the perfect way to add a touch of luxury to your honeymoon. There are plenty of options to choose from, whether you’re looking for an intimate experience or something more social. For example, you can choose a private yacht – just the two of you, with a chilled drink and a delicious barbecue on board. It’s an unforgettable way to explore the stunning coastline together. There are different routes but one of the most popular is a trip to the mentioned Blue Lagoon.

If you prefer a more romantic experience, choose a Sunset Cruise and enjoy the time spent together with a glass of champagne. It’s a magical way to end your day in paradise.

Dine by the Sea

The island is full of spots where you can enjoy a meal with a view. There are trendy beachside restaurants and small hidden taverns along the coast. Isn’t it a good idea for a honeymoon?

Cypriot cuisine is all about fresh, local flavors. Meat dishes, specialty cheeses, seafood, and unique desserts – everything for an exceptional dining experience. Don’t miss out on trying a traditional meze—a feast of small dishes that offer a taste of everything.
