If you want to get around the island the best way to do it is of course by hiring a car.

Drivings is on the left side of the road, keeping with British and British Commonwealth practice.

The standards of driving on the island are poor although the roads are really very good. You see, drivers attract their art with an equal mix of aggressiveness and incompetence and view road rules as mere guidelines.

Many accidents happens because tourists get drank and drive, or because they are used to drive on the other side of the road.

In some main roads especially in the capital –Nicosia in times of heavy traffic when people want to go to work or when they return and want to get home, they sound their horn.
Pedestrians should be very careful when crossing the roads, but also drivers should take even greater care when driving on them.

Public transport in Cyprus is not really perfect and so I decided to rent a car. Agia Napa is in a distance of just about 45 km from Larnaca, but by car you will need a bit more than 1 hour anyway, partly on the highway and including several roundabouts that are at least in the beginning a bit tricky for drivers not beeing used to the british type of roundabouts with 2-3 seperate tracks in them, but drivers in Cyprus mostly care a lot for each other and I hardly ever met a real racing-rowdy except sometimes in some cars with a red licence-plate, so those were tourists in a rental car !
When renting a car in Cyprus you have to sign a contract that does not allow you to drive on roads that are not asphalted and it is also forbidden to cross the border and drive through the part of Cyprus that is occupied by the army of Turkey !
Roads are mostly in quite a bad condition in Cyprus and you have to drive on the left !

Ayia Napa isn't that big, the best cheapest way to go from a place to another is is by bicycle, I took one for 4 days for something like 17 Euros, also motorcycles and quads are available but more expensive. the bicycle got a special runway which makes it easy/save way.

Getting around in Ayia Napa is definately easiest by scooter. As u have to walk quite a bit to reach the beach from the centre (Nissi beach aprx 2 km), its pretty exhausting daily basis . By scooter places like Paralimnin, Protaras & Cape Greco r very easy 2 reach

safe, convenient, comfortable and affordable way to travel to, from and around Agia Napa. for more info on the destinations, ticket fares and time table, check the link below.

When i was there, one thing that anoyed me was the timing of the buses. We found that taxis were very cheap and safe so it was better to use them

Great way to get around, especially to the beaches. Buses are cheap, regular and falling apart!
