Derynia

The village of Derynia, whose original name was Yeninia can be found next to Famagusta. Here you can find a folk art museum and three Byzantine churches. It appears that settlers arriving from Yeninia in Cyprus after the Trojan War may have set up home here, naming the area after their mother city.

Here the beaches are supervised by the Cyprus Tourism Organization who takes responsibility for the interest of tourists – all of the beaches in Famagusta have been awarded the EU flag for their level of cleanliness and the facilities they offer.
