Holiday Apartments and Villas to rent in Larnaca, Cyprus On the edge of Larnaca Bay, the palm-lined seafront of Larnaca town bustles with cafes, tavernas, shops and bars. Historic charm is lent to the scene by its fortress castle, now used as the town's summer cultural centre. Larnaca is an excellent base from which to get to know the central and eastern section of Cyprus, and its proximity to the International Airport and a number of luxury hotels that have been developed along its beautiful sandy beaches make this a popular holiday choice. Larnaca was originally known as Kition, or Khittim, and legend has it that the first settlement at the spot was founded by Noah's grandson, Khittim. But the name Larnaca probably comes from the Greek word 'Larnax', which means sarcophagus, many of which have been unearthed in this area. The Larnaca marina with 450 yacht capacity attracts many boats as a safe wintering place.The heart of the tourist area is Dhekelia Road. There are numerous restaurants, pubs and shops along this stretch of road, which is the main road into Larnaca town centre. A number of blue flag beaches line Dhekelia Road, together with all the main Larnaca hotels.
