Driving in Cyprus**

You'll be pleased to know that driving on Cyprus' roads won't be too dissimilar to the UK - they drive on the left hand side of the road in right hand drive vehicles. It is, of course, a lot more sunny than the British Isles!

The roads network in Cyprus is modern and well maintained, allowing easy access between towns and attractions across the island.

There are few local laws and customs that you may find useful when driving in Cyprus. This is a rough guide and should be used in conjunction with the terms and conditions stipulated by your car hire company, as well as your own research about driving laws in Paphos.

  • Right hand drive - drive on the left-hand side of the road, overtake on the right.
  • Minimum age to hire - be at least 18. Under 25's may have to pay a young driver surcharge.
  • Seatbelt - Cypriot law requires all car occupants to wear a seatbelt front and back.

The admissible limit in breath is up to 22 micrograms of alcohol in 100 millilitres of exhaled air.
