Travel has never just been a job for me; it’s a lifelong love affair. I still remember the first time I felt that rush of adrenaline, the scent of jet fuel, the crisp white linens of a hotel bed, and the profound realization that the world was far bigger than the four walls of my childhood home. It was that passion that led me to found Galaxy Travels UK.

Cyprus in August 2026: A Festival for the Senses

If you’re dreaming of a Mediterranean escape, August 2026 in Cyprus is shaping up to be spectacular. For families looking for group family holidays, the island offers a rhythmic blend of tradition and modern celebration.

The August Event Hotlist

Cyprus truly comes alive in late summer. If you’re staying near Paphos or Limassol, mark these dates in your diary:

  • Kids and Vinyls at Guaba Beach Bar, Limassol (Aug 1): Kick off the month with a family-friendly vibe at one of the world’s most famous beach bars.
  • Traditional Glendi at Pissouri Square (Aug 1): Experience the heart of Cypriot culture with music, dancing, and local delicacies.
  • Paphos Beer Festival (Aug 5-9): Located at the iconic Paphos Medieval Castle, this is a fantastic evening for the adults while the kids enjoy the waterfront atmosphere.
  • Reborn of the Phoenix at Arodes (Aug 8): A unique cultural experience in the hills above Paphos.
  • AGROFEST at Platres (Aug 14-16): My personal recommendation for families. This mountain festival features an open-air cinema under the stars, traditional Greek nights, and soulful music in the cool Troodos air.
  • The Big Show Cyprus at Chloraka Amphitheatre (Aug 15): A night of high-energy performance in a stunning coastal setting.
  • Lysos Cultural Festival (Aug 16): A deep dive into the heritage of the Paphos region.

Nature’s Greatest Spectacle: Lara Beach

For those seeking a more serene connection with nature, August is the peak of the Lara Beach turtle season. This protected sanctuary on the Akamas Peninsula is one of the few places in the world where you can witness the cycle of life for Loggerhead and Green turtles.

"Watching a tiny hatchling navigate the sand toward the vast blue sea is a cherished moment that stays with a child forever."

Please remember that Lara Beach is a conservation zone. Access is daytime only, and we ask all our guests to respect the marked nesting zones. It’s a "first-class" nature experience that requires a gentle touch.


Sailing into Magic: Disney Cruise Line 2026-2027

For many families, the ultimate family cruise holidays start and end with Disney. We are thrilled to announce that the Disney Wish 2027 sailings from Southampton are now in general sale.

The Disney Wish will be making its UK debut, offering 3-7 night itineraries. Imagine departing from Southampton and waking up to the breathtaking vistas of the Norwegian Fjords, the historic coasts of Spain, or the charming ports of the British Isles.

"Working with Sharon was a game-changer for us. After my husband's six-month deployment, we just wanted to be together without the stress of planning. She organized a bespoke trip to Cyprus that catered to our toddlers and my elderly parents. It was the first time I actually felt like I was on holiday, too." : The Thompson Family, Royal Air Force
