Why Larnaca matters

Larnaca is where most people land, but it is worth a day. A palm-lined promenade runs beside the sea with cafes and a small castle at one end. The Church of Saint Lazarus stands in the old town, and nearby a salt lake draws flamingos in winter. It is a relaxed place, good for walking and sea views.

Talking points

  • The promenade is lined with palms and cafes.
