Hi All. We have the grandchildren coming over for 2 weeks. Varying ages. 7-14. What is there out there to do. Sitting around the pool with their parents and oldies do not seem to be their total thing. They are coming in August and hopefully it will be a little cooler by then. Look forward to your suggestion's. Tanky.

Starlux cinema in Karaoglanoglu is great to get out of the heat for a couple of hours. Maybe also ten pin bowling and the arcades below it, although I haven't been in years so I'm not sure what it's like nowadays.
There's horse riding at The Ranch in Lapta if they are more on the adventurous side or even Paragliding with Highline Paragliding if they are feeling really brave!
I believe Sunas in Lapta and Escape Beach both have inflatables in the sea which could be fun for them whilst the oldies can sit in the shade with a drink!
Whatever you do, I'm sure you'll have fun

The Karpas the Oasis restaurant is in Dip Karpas there are lots of donkeys roaming free. The old abbey and small outdoor market. Itβs a great place with no entry charge

I didn't realise the wild ones were still wild after the awful state they were in years and years ago. They were pathetic then.

Yes BB, i think it is called Cemsa, problem is although it is in the evening it is still hot, especially as they have to wear all of the protective clothing
