Easter in Cyprus is the most celebrated days of the year with just about the whole of the Island, the south of Cyprus, being closed for these special religious days.
This year, 2013, the shops will be open every day through to Easter Saturday the 4th of May till about 6pm or slightly later. For the following three days, 5th, 6th & 7th of May, all shops are closed except the ones in the tourist areas. If you need anything during these days, visit the tourist area near you.The banks are closed on these days too and will open on Wednesday the 8th of May.
Many business's close for the whole week of Easter in Cyprus but you need to check to be sure so you are not caught out.
Banks in Cyprus are working under restrictions presently, and if you are not sure of your financially arrangements, please check with your bank prior to travel.
Happy Easter and please remember the telephone operator number in Cyprus is 11892. Available 24/7/365, call them and they will give you the telephone number for just about anything. Doctors, chemists, hospitals, etc. And the telephone operators all speak English as well.
