What to do for 11 days in LCA?
I am going to Larnarca in July1-11 on the AZ fare. Anybody else going to be there around that time? I explored possibility of taking a 2-3 day cruise to Egypt/Haifa. The price to book now is about 500USD + excursions extra. Does anyone have experience with these cruises? Should I wait to get there before buying cruise ticket? Any cruise to Greece? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have done the ferry all the way from Haifa thru Cyprus, to Rhodes and Athens and back again. You should easily be able to hop on individual legs. You may laso be able to ferry to Istanbul from the Turkish side of Cyprus.
Otherwise, sit back, eat haloumi, drink wine, soak up some sun, and enjoy!! Check out some ancient ruins, too.
P.S. It has been a while, but quality leather goods were notoriously cheap when I was in Cyprus (and Greece!). Check out the wares.
I love Cyprus and absolutely kick myself that I was away from email the day that AZ fare alert came thru!

LapLap started this thread for those traveling to Cyprus; you might find some useful information there.
