New to Limassol

becky123

Hi all!

My name's Becky and I'll be moving to Limassol next week. I was wondering if anyone could advise on life in Limassol? I'm moving for work but don't know anyone out there. If anyone can share info about fun things to do and good places to go I'd be grateful.

Hope to hear back soon!

Thanks

Becky

Hi Becky; you've picked an interesting time with the power-cuts!

You don't say what age group you're in; for older people there are a couple of groups you might join - the UKCA is a club for UK ex-pats - if you search for UKCA limassol, you'll find them.

The other is the C3A - a Cypriot version of the U3A; c3acyprus.org/ligrps.html is the website - they have a range of activities - I'm in the photography and geology groups, my wife's in the gardening and geology group.
