Larnaca's coastline is made for easy beach days, and its organised beaches come with the essentials sorted: sunbeds, umbrellas, showers and, in most cases, calm shallow water that's kind to families. We've gathered five spots across Larnaca and nearby Livadia, so you can pick the one that suits your day.
Right in the heart of town, Finikoudes sits behind its famous palm-lined promenade, backed by cafes and restaurants, while the neighbouring Larnaca Beach offers a spacious free stretch with a lively seafront of small local shops. For Blue Flag credentials, Mackenzie Beach adds beach bars and the quirky sight of planes landing overhead, and Kastella Beach by the Psarolimano fishing harbour stays fine-sanded, calm and rarely crowded.
Just outside the city in Oroklini, Yiannades Beach is a Blue Flag family favourite with water sports and plenty of free parking. Whatever you're after, these beaches keep things simple and close to the water.
