Pernera is a beautiful, yet small, fishing village on the
eastern coast of Cyprus. Although it is quite a popular tourist area, we also
feel that it is a bit of a hidden gem and welcomed the thought of including it
in our blog
Pernera is a great destination for families or for those who
are looking for a more relaxed holiday. Pretty much everything you need is
within walking distance to ensure that you have a lovely stay without the added
stress of travelling too far if you don’t want to.
The main street of Pernera holds a whole host of different
places including many shops, bars, and restaurants. It also has some of the
most recognised signage
in the area due to the popularity of some of these places with tourists, and locals,
alike.
This road has it all, a Tourist Information Centre, Hairdressers,
Pharmacy, Bakery, Supermarkets, Tattoo Studio, Off Licence, and even an Art Gallery, and its leads straight down to
the coast and the lovely sandy beaches.
As you reach the sea you will find the Pernera to Protaras Boardwalk. This is a truly beautiful coastal path, leading you past
some amazing hotel grounds and beaches, and with plenty of places to stop for a
refreshing beverage or spot of lunch along the way. It also gives you the
opportunity to admire some fantastic views and may even lead you to taking part
in some of the great water sports and boat trips that
are available. At night the path is flood lit so as to create a whole new
ambience, perfect for that late dinner date and romantic walk!
In Pernera itself you are definitely not short of
inspiration for what to do. You have many places that serve breakfast, lunch,
and dinner, to suit any taste buds from an English breakfast to a Mexican
Fajita. There are also some lovely eateries and bars with play areas for the
little ones and the village even has its own water park at one of the local
hotels.
With this lovely area, hotels, beachfront, and food available,
Pernera is also the perfect place for a wedding too. Surrounded by the sun, sea, sand, and
happy locals it is definitely one of the best places to tie the knot and then enjoy a
wonderful honeymoon.
Pernera really is a gem of a resort and we hope that we have
helped to highlight this. Don’t forget that you can also see some more examples
of what services are available in the area by looking through our easy to use web resource Itcy.net,
