What's waiting for you
İskele and Long Beach have changed more in the last decade than anywhere else on the island. The draw is simple: a very long, very shallow, golden beach, and resorts built right onto it.
One honest caveat before you book. Several of the biggest names here — Caesar Resort and Courtyard among them — are apartment resorts rather than conventional hotels. They are large, well kept and full of pools, but you are booking a serviced apartment, not a hotel room. Others, like The Arkın İskele, are hotels in the ordinary sense. It is worth knowing which you have chosen.
We cross on the eastern side and follow the coast road north through Boğaz. Beyond İskele the road empties out towards the Karpaz.
Where we drop you
We drive to any address — a villa, a marina, a friend's door. These are simply the places our guests ask for most.

Worth your afternoon
Long Beach
Kilometres of shallow golden sand — the reason this stretch of coast has grown so fast.
İskele Icon Museum
The little domed church of Panagia Theotokos in old Trikomo, now a museum of Byzantine frescoes and icons.
Boğaz fishing harbour
A working harbour where the day's catch goes straight to the tables on the quay.
Gateway to the Karpaz
From here the road narrows and empties out towards the wildest peninsula on the island.
