As you relax beside the pool at your holiday villa in Zeytinlik, you may notice paragliders soaring overhead. If you want to join them in the skies, North Cyprus paragliding companies will collect you from Kyrenia and take you to the launch site at St Hilarion castle. From here, it's downhill all the way to a gentle landing at the coast, a fantastic way to see the North Cyprus countryside - and with a bit of luck, a bird's eye view of your rental villa too!

For a lovely fish or kebab meal, ask the locals how to get to the Archway restaurant in Zeytinlik, a Cypriot restaurant with panoramic views across ravines to the mountains behind or the sea beyond.
