The main focus of any coastal town has to be the beachfront, and Larnaca has 25km of blue flag sandy beaches leading to the tranquil warm waters of the Mediterranean. A palm tree lined promenade runs along the main beachfront in the centre of town, flanked to the north by the marina and to the south by the old fort. Beyond the fort is a road leading to a row of fish tavernas right on the water's edge.
