Larnaca
Larnaca is well placed at the center of a comprehensive road network. Highways give direct access to Nicosia to the North, Limassol (& Paphos) to the West and Ayia Napa to the East. Tourism is now very important to the area and a number of excellent hotels have been built along the coast - mainly to the East of the town. There are many attractions ranging from a Camel Park to Archeological sites and Churches of historic significance. The Larnaca Salt lake gives a home to migratory Flamingoes before it dries out. |
Pervolia
Pervolia is located about 17km from Larnaca centre. It is a village with approximately 1.600 inhabitants and mainly agriculture. Over the last few years it has developed into a small tourist attraction without giving up its unique character. Pervolia is a typical Cypriot village, which can be described as idyllic. You will not find any big hotel complexes, instead you will find a charming traditional Cypriot village with little tourist influence. In this area you will find stony beaches which become sandy as you enter the crystal clear water, even in the peak tourist seasons these beaches are not crowded. |
