North Cyprus

How to sum up North Cyprus?

A year round sunny island that has been discovered by overseas buyers only in the last decade. It is a wonderful blend of the old and new world. Abundant with nature and a rich cultural history, North Cyprus has arrived in the modern world. Largely undeveloped, there is a perfect blend of modern facilities and yet you are always surrounded by fields, mountains, olive groves and all bathed in seemingly endless sunshine, and starry nights.

It seems that nothing is missing and there is something for everyone of all age groups. If you have previously visited established Mediterranean countries and you assume that North Cyprus will be the same, you would be wrong. There is a certain magic that captures the hearts of all our guests which you need to experience to understand. This magic is created by a combination of wonderful climate, outstanding natural beauty, a very high standard but low cost of living, a very friendly culture and above all, North Cyprus is a very safe place away from the crowds, congestion, high tax and stresses of modern life in established countries and cities.

Vision Group calculate that in North Cyprus, a single person can live for a year for the same average cost of 4 months in most established countries in Europe. In addition, property prices can be more than 50% lower than established Mediterranean countries for equal quality, locations and views.

We hope you enjoy exploring the information below about lifestyle, facilities and “things to do” in North Cyprus. You may also explore our gallery full of photos and short Vision Media movies which will give you more of visual and virtual experience of life and activities in North Cyprus.
