Limassol, Cyprus

🥂

Blue Lantern Tavern

Evening reception — confirmed

Our evening celebration will be held at the Blue Lantern Tavern in Limassol — a wonderful venue with all the warmth of a traditional Cypriot taverna.

Limassol, Cyprus

A note on the date: 31st October is a Saturday, so we'd love for guests to consider making a long weekend of it — Limassol in late October is glorious, with warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and the island in its most golden autumn light.

Cyprus has two international airports — Larnaca (LCA) on the south coast, and Paphos (PFO) on the west of the island. Both have good connections to Limassol, so choose whichever has the best direct flight from your nearest airport. We'd always recommend booking a direct flight for the most comfortable journey.

✈️ Always book direct flights for the most comfortable journey — Cyprus is well served by direct routes from most UK airports so there's no need to connect.

🚌 Getting to Limassol from the airport: Both airports are served by the Limassol Airport Express bus — a comfortable, direct shuttle costing just €9 for adults and €4 for children. From Larnaca the journey is around 1 hour; from Paphos around 1 hour 15 minutes. You can also hire a car for flexibility, or take a taxi — the most convenient door-to-door option, though the most expensive (typically €50–70 from Larnaca, €45–60 from Paphos). See the full bus timetables here: Larnaca timetable ↗  ·  Paphos timetable ↗

🛂 Passport requirements: Your passport must have a date of issue less than 10 years before arrival, an expiry date at least 3 months after your planned departure, and at least one blank page for stamping. No visa is required for UK passport holders.

🇪🇺 ETIAS — important for 2026: The EU's new Electronic Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) is expected to launch in late 2026. As UK passport holders travelling to an EU/Schengen country, you may need to register before travelling. We'll update this page if this affects your trip — you can read more at travel-europe.europa.eu ↗

Villas & Airbnb: Limassol also has a fantastic range of private villas and holiday apartments — a great option for families or groups wanting more space and flexibility. Search on Airbnb ↗ or Booking.com for apartments and villas.

Getting around Limassol: If you're staying in the town centre you'll find most things walkable. However, if you're staying further out — particularly along the resort strip — hiring a car is the most comfortable option and gives you the freedom to explore Cyprus at your own pace.

City buses do run throughout Limassol (EMEL, 30+ routes) and the main Route 30 runs frequently along the tourist coastal road. However, services become less frequent in the evenings and on Sundays, so buses are better suited for daytime exploring than getting to evening events. Taxis are always available as a convenient door-to-door option. Use the Cyprus By Bus app or Google Maps to plan bus journeys in real time.

Booking tip: We'd suggest booking as early as possible — October in Limassol is popular and availability can be limited, especially for the luxury resorts. Many guests are planning to make a full week of it.


Limassol & beyond

Explore Cyprus

Cyprus in late October is a joy — warm, unhurried, and full of colour. Whether you're a beach lover, a history enthusiast, or a foodie, there's something for everyone.

Dasoudi Beach Shaded by eucalyptus trees, this beloved local beach is calm and picturesque — a short walk from the Limassol hotel strip.
Lady's Mile Beach A long, sandy stretch near the port area — popular, peaceful, and great for a leisurely afternoon swim in October sunshine.
Governor's Beach Dramatic white chalk cliffs meeting dark water — one of Cyprus's most distinctive spots, about 30 mins from Limassol.
Kourion Beach Wild and windswept, near the ancient Kourion ruins. Excellent for snorkelling and a little adventure.
Meze at a local taverna A Cypriot tradition — a huge spread of small dishes including halloumi, kleftiko, grilled octopus, and fresh bread. Take your time.
Limassol Old Town restaurants The streets around Anexartisias and Saripolou Square are lined with wonderful restaurants from traditional Cypriot to modern Mediterranean.
Commandaria wine region Cyprus produces one of the world's oldest named wines. Visit the Troodos foothills and sample it at source — a lovely half-day trip.
Molos Promenade cafés A long seafront promenade with coffee shops, ice cream, and ocean views. Perfect for a late-morning stroll with a frappe in hand.
Limassol Castle A medieval fortress at the heart of the old town, where Richard the Lionheart married in 1191. Now a fascinating museum.
Kourion Archaeological Site One of Cyprus's most spectacular ancient sites — a Greco-Roman city with a stunning clifftop amphitheatre overlooking the sea.
Limassol Wine Festival area The Municipal Gardens are a lovely spot for an evening — restaurants nearby serve excellent local food and wine into the night.
Kolossi Castle A compact, well-preserved 15th-century castle just outside Limassol, surrounded by vineyards and orange groves.
Troodos Mountains A world away from the coast — pine forests, Byzantine monasteries, and traditional mountain villages. About an hour from Limassol.
Paphos & Aphrodite's Rock The legendary birthplace of Aphrodite, plus a UNESCO-listed archaeological park. About 1.5 hours west of Limassol.
Nicosia (Lefkosia) Europe's last divided capital — a fascinating, vibrant city with a wonderful old town, great food scene, and Venetian walls.
Larnaca & Salt Lake In late October you may spot early migratory flamingos arriving at the Salt Lake. Plus the beautiful Church of Saint Lazarus nearby.
