Discover the very best of
Northern Cyprus. The Karpaz Peninsular Region is the most northern
part of Cyprus and our place is situated on Golden Beach a
breathtaking and stunning unspoilt stretch of beach.
The Karpaz region is
protected to preserve the natural habitat and is therefore very
unspoilt and peaceful. The roads are very quiet and a pleasure to
drive whilst viewing the beautiful scenery. You will also see wild
donkeys, shepherds herding their sheep and many beautiful wild birds
including owls after dark.
We offer a traditional
breakfast, along with cooked lunches and dinners over the barbeque
with salads and fruit daily on offer. The food is very good
quality and all freshly prepared using fresh local produce at all
times. There is a well stocked bar for the evenings with a
very relaxed atmosphere. This is a friendly and family run
business established for 12 years.
You can enjoy a very
relaxing and peaceful time here close to the beach. The company is
Turkish and English run and the comfort of our guests is important
to us to help make their holidays enjoyable and relaxing. Local
knowledge is shared freely to help you enjoy your stay in Northern
Cyprus.
Meals are served on the
terraced restaurant with spectacular views overlooking the sea and
beach including spectacular sunsets.
The bungalows are fairly
basic but comfortable. There are bungalows with double beds, 2
single beds and a family room with a double bed and a single bed.
Our prices to stay are
very reasonable – from only £19 per bungalow (2 people) for bed and
breakfast - £9.50 per person per night. We also offer special deals
to include bed, breakfast and evening meal to include one free
drink. The price of this can be discussed further on arrival.
You can spend the day
sunbathing and swimming on the beach where you will find miles of
golden unspoilt sand with fantastic clear blue sea and the great
thing is that the beach is never crowded so is always very peaceful.
There are a couple of
places of interest nearby: the St.Andreas Monastery and the Cape where you will
see the Turkish and Turkish Cypriot flags flying side by side on the
top of a hill overlooking the sea. This is the most northern tip of
Cyprus and as far as you can go. The Cape is not an advertised or
marked tourist site but one of the staff at Big Sands will be
pleased to direct you there. This is definitely a site worth seeing
whilst in Northern Cyprus especially at dusk to watch the sun set.
The nearby traditional village of Dipkarpaz has some very good
quality restaurants worth a visit and you will find the quality of
service and hospitality of the people there very high. You will
also find small shops and supermarkets there. This is one of the
few places you will find in Northern Cyprus where Turkish and Greek
people still live side by side.
Directions
Big Sand Beach is 20
kilometres past the mountain village of Dipkarpaz and 1 kilometre
from the St.Andreas Monastery. Just follow the sign as you come through Dipkarpaz to the
Andreas Monastery and keep driving on the same road for 20 kms. Look out for
Big Sand Beach on your right hand side. If you
get lost or are not sure just give us a call. You will pass signs
to a few other similar places going towards the beach but keep going
until you see the Big Sand sign and you will see that we have the
unique position of being both on the road and beach – the best of
both worlds.
There is a large parking
area to the front of the restaurant where cars can be safely left.
If you want to visit us for just a drink or lunch and maybe spend
some time on the beach that is fine. You will be very welcome.
If you
are hiring a car whilst in Northern Cyprus please drop in to visit
whilst exploring the Karpaz region and if you decide you would like
to stay a night or two we will be happy to accommodate if room
available. Please mention that you found out about Big Sand Beach
on the Cyprus Gold website.
