Definitely agree. Recently came back from holiday in Protaras and I knew so many things, where to go and what to do thanks to George’s wonderful videos.
Good Morning Su and George! Another wonderful adventure guys, the sea looks lovely! The jungle float does look like fun 20 years ago...lol Have a beautiful day guys! I am off to work! Keep Spinning and Winning
Hi George, I visited Zorbas by the sea after watching this, thank you very much for letting me know. We popped in and had some of there ice cream & it is delish 🤤 👌🏾Keep up the great work 👍🏾
Hi George and Su hope you both ok thank you for showing us wonderful Zorbas we go to the one in Oroklini and can not wait till September till we come to Cyprus
Fantastic video George, brings back some great memories of our holiday last month. I had a corn on the cob from the corner kiosk and it was delish. Can’t believe we didn’t go to Zorbas but it’ll be top of the list for next time!
Really great vlog George so much info packed into one film. Really like the look of Zorbas as you say great for a picnic , it all looked lovely and fresh especially ice cream being made for all to see . Corn on the cob looks delish 🤤. Enjoy rest of your weekend guys
We will be visiting in September and staying at the hotel Cavo Maris Beach Hotel.Thank you for your look around the resort it makes us excited for our visit.
Hi George, last time I was in Cyprus was 5 years ago now, so it's so nice to see what they've done with this "Coastal Path" and learn what's on it. That area is so scenic and picturesque and my mother was from Paralimni, so I've known Fig-Tree bay since I was a very young child and before we moved to the UK in 1972. It's so nice to get a chance to see what it looks like now. Amazing as ever. Thanks for all your hard work. 🙂
Hello George and sue just seen us on this vlog.mist you by seconds .we were going in to a restaurant at the start .that's a shame because we are home now.good vlog as usual.
Another great video George nice to see it looking so busy now and back to normal . I heard zorbas bakery is open 24 hours which is very convenient cant wait to be back here next week and just relax and unwind . I know what to do now if we see you creep behind you and say George haha Hope your having a nice weekend 😀
All the years we have been coming to Cyprus, I can honestly say I have known about zorbas bakery, but will give it a go in 4 weeks my granddaughter loves salad's, enjoying the vlogs George sue take care.
Very interesting you’re vlog. It’s very clear English , brilliant. Any one who has a less English knowledge even easier to understand .. planning to short visit near future. Very helpful you’re Videos. Subscribed.
Hi George the zorbas bakery is superb i found it after your last video when you featured it we gor a few sandwiches for the flight back home only 2.40 each compared to 7.50 at the airport . great video btw i walked the coastal path every day when we were there the smell of the fig trees is amazing cheers . Matt
Lovely walkaround George.. you wouldn't believe this, but at the moment we in UK have temperatures of 40°, so as hot at Cyprus.. unfortunately, there's no pools or cooling sea anywhere within 30 miles of me, so sweating cobs!! How you go walkabout in that heat I really don't know, but guess you're so used to it now!!
Hi,myself and my family have been going to protaras for the past 17 years,missed a couple because of covid restrictions, but totally agree,beautiful warm and friendly place.
Hi George i didn’t know about this place to buy picnic things so thanks.Also i love the coffee & pistachio cake at the cafe next to the sunrise pearl hotel on the strip.We have stayed there twice & the chefs make it from the pearl for that coffee shop.As you say delish
What a lovely little stroll down memory lane. Both because I have been there many times and because I have forgotten what sun and warm weather is like! It's 11 degress and raining here today. Excellent, if you're a duck... See you in the next one! You keep saying how fun the quads are, have you driven one? Maybe you could take us along for a ride! See you in the next one!
@@CYPRUSINSIGHT It probably will get a lot of wind noise, hadn't thought of that. Have you got a "dead cat" wind noise thing yet? They are good for when you are out vlogging in windy conditions. Raingear on, off for a walk!
Hi george.If you walk around the hotel on the cornor to the right of fig tree bay they are planting trees for all those who have died. The whole area is being done up. Will look lovely when its finished.Dont tell my sister but every morning on my return from running which the seafront is lovely for i would stop at zorbas bakery for a coffee and a treat🤣😋
Hi George it’s mick from Dudley West Midlands won’t be coming to Alva hotel next year my wife past away last week of cancer we didn’t know she as it may be one day I will but thank you 🙏 for all the videos my friend
Thank you 🙏 George we didn’t know told us it was something else back in April and told us it was cancer the day she pasted she loved Cyprus but one day I will come back
Hi Geoge and Sue sorry not been in touch but since I got back from my trip to Paphos which was lovely I have been in hospital but all better now. Trying to catch up on your great vlogs . Best wishes Maggie 👍🙂😎🌞
Visited here nearly every day when I was there a couple of weeks ago, brilliant place and very reasonable, got lunch then took it to our sun beds on the beach. Lunch with a beautiful view,
Great video George looks wonderful! Any chance you could do a little walk around the Sunrise Pearl Resort and Spa as we're going in October. Anything with the swim up too would be great!
Hi George. We are off to Protaras next week and your videos have been great. It’s our first time to Cyprus and we’re really looking forward to it. I’ve been checking if we need plug adaptors and everywhere I read it says Cyprus have the same socket outlets as the UK. Is that correct ? Thanks again. Jason
Hi George, watching this, I now wish I had recorded some footage of Fig Tree Bay as it was back in 1977-81 when it truly was 'the finest beach in Cyprus'. I would drive 90 minutes in a VW Beetle twice pre pay, 5 days each week simply to visit the beach. Back then, Fig Tree Bay (the cafe/restaurant), was a single barrack building run by the two Zefkas brothers, George and Antoni. It is the restaurant on your right which is now run exclusively by Toni and his family. The newer restaurant on the left is run by George and his family. George's restaurant was back then, an empty field/car parking where I would pitch up a tent. The sea of blue beach umbrellas was an empty beach during weekdays frequented only by diehard beach-bums like yours truly and some Swedish UN Personal. Weekends it would attract a few locals from Paralimni.
Looking forward to arriving in protaras on 27th July..looks beautiful..can anyone tell me the rules on mask wearing as I'm lead to believe cyprus has re introduced the need to wear them again in certain areas...👍👍
just get an exemption badge....i was there last September when they had them and never wore one anywhere...idiotic they have brought them back!...vile things
Just had friends return from Protaras. They speak of graffitti, vandalised play area, broken glass along the promenade and rubbish strewn across beaches. Young, drunk tourists vomiting and crawling in streets. Not the Protaras I remember. Casting some doubts now. Anyone else counter the above?
@@CYPRUSINSIGHT Indeed. To be fair, I was more pleased to hear of a very busy Protaras. It is needed after 2 years of, well, misery. Ashame the Karaoke bar closed down (Zodiak I think it was called - could be wrong). Love the idea of the film festival though. We catch the last 3 days of it😎 If we see you about during our stay, we will be sure to come say hello👍.
Hands down, this is the most informative channel about visiting Cyprus 🙌🏻
Thanks Georgia, we try our best.
Definitely agree. Recently came back from holiday in Protaras and I knew so many things, where to go and what to do thanks to George’s wonderful videos.
What a brilliant bakery! Never seen such a big one! Puts Greggs to shame haha!
Gotta try the kebabs marty.
Another great video George. I can’t wait to come back in September 😀 hopefully we’ll see you walking around!
Hope so Louise. Getting closer.
George, Sue, I thank you a million times for the opportunity to see our beloved Protaras again!
Very welcome.

Not the strip. It is newish, last year I think.

That sounds amazing - there's still scenes like that now in Northern Cyprus it's like going back in time in the far north.

Looking forward to arriving in protaras on 27th July..looks beautiful..can anyone tell me the rules on mask wearing as I'm lead to believe cyprus has re introduced the need to wear them again in certain areas...👍👍
It's indoors so shops and restaurants until you sit down. Have a great trip.
just get an exemption badge....i was there last September when they had them and never wore one anywhere...idiotic they have brought them back!...vile things
Just had friends return from Protaras. They speak of graffitti, vandalised play area, broken glass along the promenade and rubbish strewn across beaches. Young, drunk tourists vomiting and crawling in streets.
Not the Protaras I remember. Casting some doubts now.
Anyone else counter the above?
We have not seen that, there is a bit of graffiti about but it gets cleaned off straight away, kids will be kids and all that but not seen the rest.
