About
A sunny Mediterranean island close to Israel. Limassol and Larnaca have Chabad centers with synagogues, kosher restaurants and kosher stores, which makes Cyprus an easy beach trip with Shabbat covered.
Good to know: only 2 shuls and 6 kosher places are on our map here so far, and the real number is likely higher. Before you book, check with the local Chabad (search Chabad Limassol, Cyprus) and look up kosher on Google Maps.
Shabbos food: Sambation (via Chabad of Cyprus). What each one offers, how to order and the hechsher to ask about are in Travel Info ›
Best time to goApr–Jun and Sept–Nov; July–Aug is hot.
Local time
Before you goPlaces come from OpenStreetMap and can change. Call ahead for minyan and Shabbos meals, and check the hechsher yourself.

Walking times are estimates: straight-line distance × 1.3 at about 80 m a minute. Driving times are road routes without traffic (OpenStreetMap routing); where a route is missing we show “≈”, straight line × 1.4 at city speed. No prices or ratings here; each hotel links to Google Maps reviews and a Booking.com search.
