Car Rental Reviews Larnaca Airport

  • “The pick-up was easy, it took 5 minutes from arriving at the desk to driving out the car, and the return took even less time.”

Where to go

With your hire car, the whole of southern Cyprus will be opened up to you. Start off by checking out the areas of Larnaca, including its beautiful beaches, historic sites and squares. There is so much crammed into the city, you can enjoy a cultural attraction in the morning and a relaxing sunbathe and swim in the afternoon.

Nearby Larnaca Airport

Just over 5km from the airport is Mackenzie Beach, meaning you could be feeling the sand between your toes within minutes of picking up your hire car. It’s safe for swimming and features a long promenade and some delicious seafood restaurants. For a wider selection of beaches, drive a little further to Ayia Napa, where there are 14 Blue Flag-accredited stretches of sand to enjoy.

Longer drives

Nicosia is the country’s capital and therefore well worth a visit. You’ll find ancient walls and sites, traditional restaurants and an enticing café culture. Alternatively, take the drive to Limassol, complete with its castle, 19th-century buildings and some wonderful boutiques for doing a spot of shopping. Finish the day with a wander along the promenade as the sun sets. Another option is Paphos, which has been inhabited since Neolithic times.

Eating and drinking

The food in Larnaca is mainly Greek in influence, so you’ll be able to enjoy wonderful Mediterranean fare that is both delicious and surprisingly good for you. As well as the Greek salads, be sure to take advantage of Cyprus’ island status and enjoy some fish. And if you decide you’d like a change, there’s a number of restaurants offering up cuisine from other parts of the world.

Things to do

Throwing everything into the back of your hire car and spending the day at the beach is one of the obvious benefits of holidaying in Larnaca. Don’t neglect its other charms, however, especially Larnaca Salt Lake, which is made up of a series of small lakes and can be found to the west of the city.

Sightseeing

If you enjoy history, then you’ll want to visit some of the fascinating sites Larnaca and the wider area have to offer. Take in the Kition, a former city-state that dates back to the 13th century, and Larnaca Fort, which was constructed between 1382 and 1398. Both will give you an interesting insight into Cyprus and the civilisations that have shaped it.
