Is there a lot of crime in Ayia Napa?

Answer this Question

We asked people if there is a lot of crime. They answered...

"Ayia Napa, is generally considered a safe destination for tourists. However, like any popular tourist spot, it does have some crime. The most common types of crime reported are petty thefts, such as pickpocketing and bag snatching, particularly in crowded areas and on public transportation. There have also been instances of burglaries in holiday accommodations. Nightlife in Ayia Napa can sometimes lead to instances of alcohol-related crime, such as fights or disorderly conduct, particularly during the peak tourist season. There have also been occasional reports of more serious crimes, including sexual assaults and drug offenses. Despite these issues, the local authorities in Ayia Napa take crime seriously and work hard to maintain a safe environment for residents and visitors. Tourists are advised to take standard precautions, such as not leaving belongings unattended, being aware of their surroundings, and avoiding excessive alcohol consumption," remarked another expat who made the move to Ayia Napa, Cyprus.
