Things to do
Larnaca sits on the southern coast of Cyprus, and its centre fits between the palm-lined Finikoudes promenade and the church of St. Lazarus. This is a calm town for the sea and short excursions, with the airport only seven kilometres away and a quarter of an hour to the hotel.
Finikoudes
The Finikoudes promenade follows the sea under palms, an easy line from St. Lazarus church to the castle. Swim at the town beach in the morning while the water is flat, then come back in the evening to walk between the cafes.
Salt Lake
In winter pink flamingos settle on the Salt Lake, and in summer the water dries into a crust of salt. Hala Sultan Tekke stands beside it, and people come for the quiet and long evening walks along the shore.
Kamares Aqueduct
The stone Kamares aqueduct stands on the northern edge of town among fields and olives, reached by a short road. Few tourists come here, so carry water and follow the arches towards the old town for another side of Cyprus.
Where to stay
Finikoudes
Finikoudes puts the beach, restaurants and St. Lazarus church within walking distance. Summer nights are loud along the promenade and seafront rooms cost more, but no car is needed at all.
Mackenzie
Mackenzie draws people for its wide sandy beach and bars by the water, with more surfers and younger crowds. The centre is twenty minutes along the shore, and aircraft can be heard because the airport is close.
Dhekelia
The hotel strip along Dhekelia stretches north-east of town: gardens, pools and quiet beaches. The centre and airport need a drive, yet nightlife stays away and space by the water is easy to find.
Getting to and around Larnaca
Larnaca airport lies seven kilometres from Finikoudes, and a bus or taxi reaches the promenade in about fifteen minutes. Local buses connect the centre with Mackenzie and Dhekelia, while intercity services run to Nicosia, Limassol and Ayia Napa. The centre is flat and pleasant on foot, even with a bag.
Three days in Larnaca
Old town and sea
Start at St. Lazarus church, walk to the castle and on along Finikoudes under the palms. Swim at the town beach after lunch and stay for dinner facing the water.
Lake and aqueduct
Walk around the Salt Lake in the morning and stop at Hala Sultan Tekke. Then drive to the Kamares aqueduct and return to town through the old quarters and their workshops.
Mackenzie and Kition
Spend the morning on Mackenzie beach, swimming and walking the shoreline to the rocks. After lunch look at the ruins of Kition and finish the day at a bar on the sand.
