About Larnaca

Larnaca, also known as Larnaka is a city on the east coast of Cyprus. The major international airport of Cyprus, Larnaca International Airport is located in this city.

In ancient times, Larnaca was known as Kition. The biblical name Kittim, though derived from Citium, was in fact used quite generally for Cyprus as a whole, and occasionally by the Jews for the Greeks and Romans.

Larnaca has a population of 72,000 (2001) and is the island's second commercial port and an important tourist resort. To the north of the town lies the island's oil refinery, while to the south of Larnaca the International Airport is situated. The city of Larnaka is well-known for its picturesque sea-front which includes rows of palm trees.

As the oldest continually inhabited town on Cyprus, the port city of Larnaca has a rich and interesting history stretching back 6,000 years.

Legend says the original town of Kition was founded by Noah’s grandson, Khittim. Due to its prime location in the Mediterranean, the town has been desired by every civilisation that has ruled over this region.

Today, Larnaca is known for its lovely uncrowded beaches, great food and ancient historical sites.
