Larnaca has a large variety of bars, cafe's, restaurants and every type of shop selling almost everything you would expect to find in a large town.
The town is seperated from the beach by a long promenade with many beachside bars and cafe's and smaller shops selling ice creams and soft drinks.
Fishing, diving and glass bottom boats, etc can all be arranged from the nearby marina.
The beach is so big that anyone who prefers a little more peace and quiet can also be catered for.
