Ayia Napa, Cyprus
Hangover Bay
"Where Your Liver Goes to Retire Early"
Official Coat of Arms
A shield divided into two: the upper half depicts the pristine white sands of Nissi Beach at dawn, untouched and serene; the lower half shows the same beach at 2pm, cluttered with sunbeds, cocktail buckets shaped like fish, and a single lost flip-flop. The crest bears a foam party cannon rampant, motto scroll reading 'Nemo Recordatur' (Nobody Remembers).
TripAdvisor Review
★★★☆☆ 3/5
"Booked this thinking it'd be a quiet beach holiday, absolute rookie mistake on my part. The sand at Nissi Beach is genuinely stunning at 7am before anyone's awake, then by 11am it's wall-to-wall inflatable flamingos and someone's stag do doing tequila shots off a jet ski. The clubs on the strip are loud enough to hear from the harbour, and my hotel breakfast was interrupted by three separate groups of lads still in last night's clothes. Beautiful coastline, terrible sleep, would return with earplugs."— Deborah H, Solihull
Property Listing
Stunning coastal living with unparalleled access to some of the finest turquoise waters in the Mediterranean, plus a vibrant nightlife scene right on your doorstep for those who enjoy falling asleep to the gentle rhythm of remixed pop hits until 5am. Perfect for buyers who consider 'peace and quiet' a seasonal concept, available roughly October through April.
Twinned With
Magaluf — Both towns have beautiful Mediterranean coastlines that get mostly appreciated by people who can no longer stand up straight.
Supporting Evidence
Ayia Napa was originally a quiet fishing village until the 1970s, and its 14th-century monastery still stands calmly in the town centre, roughly 200 metres from several nightclubs playing bass-heavy music until sunrise.
