Larnaca’s food scene is classic Cypriot: generous meze spreads, grilled halloumi, souvlaki and fresh Mediterranean fish landed at the local harbour. The seafront is lined with tavernas serving kleftiko, sheftalia and loukoumades, while the back streets hide family bakeries and the famous cafes of the Finikoudes promenade. It is an easy, flavourful place to eat well on any budget.

Larnaca sits on the southeast coast of Cyprus and is the undisputed wreck-diving capital of the island, home to the legendary MS Zenobia, one of the top ten wreck dives on the planet. The region pairs that headline wreck with a varied menu of reefs, artificial structures and gentle shore dives, making it equally attractive to technical divers and to complete beginners. The coastline is low and sheltered, with easy boat access from Larnaca marina and a string of sandy beaches that double as training sites. Visibility in the calm Levantine waters regularly exceeds 30 metres, and the water stays warm well into late autumn. Beyond the Zenobia, divers explore the Pyla and Larnaca Bay artificial reefs, the rocky Dhekelia reef and the seagrass beds of Makenzy Beach, where seahorses and cuttlefish reward a slow, observant dive. Larnaca is also the most convenient base on the island, with an international airport minutes from the water and a mature, professional dive infrastructure.

Larnaca (South-East)

Fly into Larnaca (LCA) or Paphos (PFO) international airports, then drive to Larnaca. A rental car is the most flexible way to reach the harbours and dive boats, and most centres run hotel transfers.
