Cyprus Newspapers - where to read the news in Cyprus

Most English speaking residents prefer to read Cyprus newspapers in English for obvious reasons.

Even if you can speak Greek reasonably well, reading the news in print is a far more difficult proposition!

The main newspaper written in English is the Cyprus Mail, a daily publication, accompanied by a magazine, "Seven" with the Sunday edition.

The paper also has an online edition which I personally find far more useful...as I never seem to find time to read a newspaper!

The Cyprus Mail internet edition is quick and easy to read, using a large on screen font. Perfect for catching up with all the latest news.

For an even quicker version, however, check out our own latest news page.

For English speakers, there is also the Cyprus Weekly.

This "weekly" newspaper also has an online edition, but the on screen text is a little small for my liking.
We occasionally buy this paper but find it full of "whingeing" foreign resident stories and columnists who like to complain about most things Cypriot.

Our view is, if you come to live on the island, you need to accept the island for what it is, warts n' all and stop complaining!

If you do want to read a newspaper in Greek, then here are your choices:

• Phileleftheros - the main newspaper from Nicosia. Here's the online link.
• Politis - the daily political paper. Link
• Simerini - another daily paper.
• And if you live in Northern Cyprus, the Kibris Gazete (written in Turkish).

If none of these newspapers interest you, then you can always do what many of the ex pats do... just buy a copy of a British paper...at 4x the price v the UK!
