Online travel experts UlookUBook.com, who offer cheap holidays to Cyprus, are excited about the growth of the island’s tourism revenue. New plans to move toward winter tourism and the development of two new golf courses will, according to UlookUBook.com, cement Cyprus’s reputation as a major holiday destination.
Ian Raine of ULookUBook.com, comments: “Cyprus’s tourism income over the first four months of 2011 increased by 23.7 per cent when compared with the same period last year. This shows that this destination is seeing significant growth in popularity.”
As well as recording an increase in travel revenue, the island’s Minister of Commerce, Industry and Tourism, Antonis Paschalides, recently announced that the country would be concentrating on winter tourism. The Cypriot government is hoping that the geographical location, mild climate, short distances, history and tourist sites will give Cyprus a competitive advantage in the development of winter tourism.
According to ULookUBook, holiday visits to the area have increased due to the country’s golf tourism and two new golf courses are currently being planned. The new courses at Paphos and Larnacaare expected to be completed soon. The Elea Golf Club has already been hailed as, ‘one of the world’s most exciting new courses’ by Golf World Magazine and the new developments promise to secure Cyprus’s golfing reputation.
Ian Raine of ULookUBook.com continues: “The type of holiday experience Cyprus offers is geared toward the golfing industry. The relaxed atmosphere and superb courses attract discerning golfers from around the world. This appeal and the island’s new focus on winter tourism ensure that the future is very bright for this great holiday destination.”
