Mazotos Camel Park
Located less than 1km from your apartment, Mazotos Camel Park is one of the most well-known family attractions in Cyprus. Clearly signposted across the island, it’s incredibly easy to find and makes for a fantastic day out for visitors of all ages.
The park is best known for its camels and camel rides, offering a unique experience rarely found elsewhere in Cyprus. Whether you're after a gentle ride through the surrounding landscape or just want to watch these fascinating creatures up close, the park offers plenty of opportunities to interact with them.
But camels aren’t the only animals here. The park is home to a variety of other friendly animals including llamas, ponies, ostriches, goats, deer, and even kangaroos. There’s also a petting area that’s especially popular with younger visitors who can safely get close to and feed some of the animals.
Beyond the animals, the park features a beautiful swimming pool surrounded by gardens—a welcome treat during the hot summer months. Sun loungers and shaded areas make it easy to relax while the kids cool off. Many families bring their swimwear and make a full day of it, alternating between seeing the animals and enjoying the pool.
On-site, you’ll also find a well-rated restaurant serving a wide selection of meals, snacks, and drinks. The shaded outdoor seating area is perfect for a relaxing lunch while keeping an eye on the kids playing nearby. There’s even a playground and a small amusement area with coin-operated rides to keep children entertained.
The Camel Park also has a gift shop with a range of souvenirs, local products, and toys, making it easy to take home a memory of your visit.
A quick tip: the park is particularly popular during Bank Holidays and peak summer months, so expect larger crowds during these times. If you’re visiting in July or August, consider arriving early or visiting on a weekday for a quieter experience.
Whether you're travelling with family, as a couple, or on your own, Mazotos Camel Park offers a relaxing, entertaining, and memorable outing just minutes from your doorstep.
