Cyprus Tourism Reaches New Heights with Record Arrivals from Germany

2025 has been a highly successful year for tourism in Cyprus, with record arrivals, particularly from Germany, after 28 years. The Deputy Minister of Tourism, Kostas Koumis, highlighted that the German market, the largest in the world for outbound tourism, was recently small for Cyprus, with the best performance being 250,000 arrivals in 1997. However, this record was surpassed this year. Furthermore, Cyprus has been recognized at a pan-European level for improving air connectivity and increasing tourism revenue. Improving air links with Germany and spreading the benefits of tourism across all regions of Cyprus are important goals of the Deputy Ministry.
