With a long tradition in fishing, Cyprus offers fishing enthusiasts an outstanding choice of fresh-water as well as salt-water fishing. 23 dams nestled amidst incredibly pristine surroundings offer you plenty of fresh water fishing opportunities where you can look forward to reeling in about 17 different species of fish including the Rainbow Trout, Tilapia, Tench, Largemouth Bass and Silver Bream. If salt-water fishing is more your thing, the surrounding Mediterranean Sea, with more than 80 different species of salt-water fish offers endless opportunities. Even better, you do not need a license for angling or trawling in the sea of if you are spear-fishing with no diving equipment. However licenses are required and certain restrictions apply for fishing with long-lines or nets and for spear-fishing with aqualungs.
