Famagusta is a city on the east coast of Cyprus and is capital of the Famagusta District.
It is located in a bay between Capes Greco and Eloea, east of Nicosia, and possesses the deepest harbour in the island. Since the 1974 Turkish invasion the city has resided in the de facto Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (recognised only by Turkey) but much of the city is abandoned: the Turkish Cypriots intend to return the area to Greek Cypriot control if a confederal agreement is reached for the island.
