Padel in Ayia Napa and the wider Famagusta district is still in its early stages, but the sport is catching on. Whether you live in the area or are visiting on holiday, here is what you need to know about playing padel on the east coast of Cyprus.
Padel Courts Near Ayia Napa
Padel Paradise in Ayia Napa is the main option for courts in the area. Check their availability on Playtomic or contact them directly for current pricing and court info. Protaras and Paralimni also have a small but growing padel presence — it is worth searching Playtomic for new venues that may have opened recently.
The east coast padel scene is newer and smaller than Limassol or Nicosia, so availability is generally good. You are less likely to face the fully-booked peak hours that bigger cities deal with.
What to Expect
If you have never played padel before, the sport is easy to pick up. It is played in doubles on an enclosed court with glass walls. The walls are in play, which adds a tactical element you will not find in tennis or pickleball. Most people are rallying within minutes of their first game.
