Thalassa Municipal Museum

Ayia Napa's museum of the sea, telling Cyprus's maritime story from prehistory onwards. Its centrepiece is a full-size replica of the ancient Kyrenia ship.

Thalassa means "sea", and the museum explores how the Mediterranean shaped life on Cyprus. Highlights include Kyrenia Liberty, a working replica of a 4th-century BC merchant ship, and a reconstructed papyrus boat of the kind early seafarers may have used to reach the island.

There are also fossils, shells and displays on marine life, which makes it a good family stop on a hot or windy day.

Good to know

Allow about an hour. It is a short walk from the monastery and the town square.
