As part of our ecotourism and agrotourism programs we offer a comprehensive village life experience, where we see how local products are prepared and get deep insight in the life of Maronites in the past and in the present. Activities include bread baking, halloumi making, visiting the ethnographic museum and the mini-farm.
VILLAGE LIFE
Festivals and events 2016/2017

Turtle watching
The Akdeniz Beach near Kormacit is one of the few spots in Northern Cyprus, where turtles (including Caretta-Caretta) lay their eggs between July and August. It is a fascinating show for nature and ecotourism lovers!

TULIP FESTIVAL 2017
Annual Tulip Festival in Tepebasi village. The Tulipa cypria is an endemic species that can only be found in the region around Kormacit and at some places in Karpaz and Akamas.

ST. GEORGE FESTIVAL
St. George is the patron of Kormacit village, so his name day is celebrated 2 days on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday evening there is a concert at the village square. Sunday is celebrated with a holy mass and folk dances.

EASTER 2017
