Southwest of Larnaca: the coast

Larnaca is conveniendy situated at the centre of its administrative district, with a number of archeological sites, handicraft-producing villages and less popular resorts scattered in a broad arc all around. The main expressways to Limassol and Nicosia are routed well inland west of the city, leaving the coastal plain to the southwest relatively untravelled except for local village traffic. This is one patch of Cyprus, though, where the best bits are the easiest to reach.
