Dherynia presents one of the best choices for those wishing to live in a residential area while still being at close proximity to facilities offered in the major tourism resorts of Ayia Napa and Protaras.
The village has three interesting churches, the small domed 17th century church of Ayios Georgios, the 15th century Ayia Marina church and the Virgin Mary church dating to the 17th century with beautiful icons. Its folk art museums displays rural artefacts.
Views from Dherynia include the 'ghost town of Famagusta, now under occupation of the Turkish army, once the most popular holiday resort in Cyprus.
