Cyprus 2 – Kyrenia

Kyrenia - Dock boats water

We spent the last couple days around Kyrenia, on the North coast, in the Turkish-occupied section of Cyprus.  This is a small, picturesque town with some excellent restaurants, surrounding a small scenic harbor and ancient castle.

Kyrenia - castle shipwreck museum

Kyrenia castle, a 16th-century castle built by the Venetians, overlooks the harbor (upper two images), with a small shipwreck museum that contains a remnants of the oldest recovered shipwreck (upper middle two images).

A short distance away is Kantara Castle, a fortress located on the Kyrenia Mountain range (lower two images).
