Cyprus
Despite the fact, the land is considered a summer destination, the tourist season in Larnaca is from late April – early May to late autumn. Beaches with golden sands, excellent service, and superior hotels will be in limited supply in 2021. Consequently, those who did not choose the place to visit in late spring or early summer should pay attention to Cypriot resorts.
Greece
The authorities of Greece have already announced that the country will be open to all foreign tourists. Those who will already be vaccinated most likely will not have to quarantine, take tests and go through other procedures. Everyone else will need to take a COVID-19 test and buy insurance at least in the first half of the year.
