📍 Destination Overview
Larnaca is a pleasant seaside city on Cyprus's south-east coast, and as home to the main international airport it is most visitors' gateway to the island. The palm-lined Finikoudes promenade runs by the sand, busy with cafes. The old town holds the ninth-century Church of Saint Lazarus, his reputed resting place, while the salt lake hosts flamingos in season.
