Hi Veronica, thanks for the feedback.
You confirm my fears, of course
Perhaps those businesses are not functional at the moment.
The bar idea would be themed - I have a theme that does not seem to exist in Cyprus but my friend has used in another beach resort location (including a once and hour "show") and I think it would be successful if in the right location (ie: Ayia Napa or similar). However, I agree with you- there seem to be a few too many bars there from what I have read! Same problem for most in Thailand I assume. I will have to venture out there to see... not so bad
The eco tourism idea is an interesting nitch- I will look more into that. Thanks for the idea! Do you know any current types of tourism ventures like that (perhaps ourside Cyprus) that I can try to read about?

Bars also are ten to the penny but if you can come up with something a bit different to the usual run of the mill type expats bar maybe you could make that work.
Perhaps the best idea would be a small hotel if you have experience in that field.
Have you thought about the possiblity of an eco tourism type hotel? That is something which is lacking in Cyprus with most of the focus being on beach holidays but there opportunities for specialist holidays for bird watchers, hikers, etc.
Just a thought.
