Özanköy: Where Traditional Cypriot Spirit Meets Modern Living

Just east of Kyrenia, neighbouring Bellapais and set at the foot of the Five Finger Mountains, Özanköy is a unique settlement blending traditional Cypriot village life with modern comfort. Walking its narrow stone streets feels like being in a village, while the garden villas and sea-facing terraces feel like a resort. This balance between two worlds makes Özanköy one of Kyrenia's warmest and most genuine districts.

Özanköy's Cultural Identity

Özanköy is one of North Cyprus's most cosmopolitan villages, with a warm, mutually respectful community where locals and, in particular, British expats live side by side:

• Expat-friendly: There's a strong English-speaking community network. Social clubs, dinner nights and charity events are organised regularly.
• Traditional architecture: Restored stone houses, arched courtyards and century-old trees make up the village's historic fabric.
• Cuisine: The village restaurants and taverns in the area are popular meeting spots serving both local and international cuisine.

Daily Life and Infrastructure

Thanks to its proximity to Kyrenia, Özanköy offers both village peace and city amenities together:

• Location: Just 5-10 minutes by car from Kyrenia centre. Walking distance to Bellapais.
• Essentials: The village has basic amenities such as a market, butcher, bakery and café.
• Education: Easy access to British-curriculum private schools in Kyrenia.
• Healthcare: Private and state hospitals are 10-15 minutes away.
