Travelling to Cyprus

Larnaca’s International Airport (LCA) is the most convenient arrival point in Cyprus for reaching the BFA venue.

Upon arrival you can continue your trip by taking a taxi or the local bus 425 that serves the city center and stops very close to Sun Hall hotel (stop 14 as shown in this link).

Alternatively, you can use one of the other three legal points of entry to the country: Paphos International Airport (PFO) (120km away), or the ports of Larnaca and Limassol if you are arriving by boat.

Visa Requirements

Cyprus is a member state of the European Union so the same Visa Requirements as all other member states apply.

For more information, please check https://www.gov.cy/en/information/visas/

Note, however, that Cyprus is not yet part of the Schengen agreement, therefore passport controls are in effect at all entry and departure points.

Other useful information about Cyprus

The currency used is the EURO.

Driving is on the left (like in the UK), so bare this in mind when you are crossing the road.

All electricity plugs are UK style, and suitable adapters should be widely available.

The weather during the conference is expected to be warm, so make sure you have adequate sun protection with you (sunscreen, hats, sunglasses etc.).
