About Kyrenia

Kyrenia, on Cyprus's north coast, is a harbour town below the Kyrenia Mountains, with a Venetian castle holding an old shipwreck and hill castles above.

Kyrenia, known in Turkish as Girne, lies on the north coast of Cyprus beneath the long ridge of the Kyrenia Mountains. Its horseshoe harbour, lined with cafés and restaurants, is overlooked by Kyrenia Castle, a fortress of Byzantine origin that the Venetians strengthened with round corner towers. Inside, a museum shows the remains of a merchant ship wrecked just outside the harbour more than two thousand years ago, raised in the 1960s with its cargo of amphorae.
