Larnaca, or Larnaka , is a city on the south east coast of Cyprus. The major international airport of Cyprus, Larnaca International Airport is located in this city. In ancient times, Larnaka was known as Kition, or (in Latin) Citium. The biblical name Kittim, though derived from Citium, was in fact used quite generally for Cyprus as a whole, and occasionally by the Hebrews for the Greeks and Romans.

It has a population of 72,000 and is the island's 2nd 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. Much of the activity is centred around the city promenade during major festivals. The most important of these for the city of Larnaka is Kataklysmos or the Festival of the Flood, celebrated in early summer with a series of cultural events.

The advantages of Larnaca as a tourist resort are numerous. The town is large enough to give everything one may need but not overcrowded especially at its beautiful beaches which extend for 25 km. The archaeological sites and its six museums are in the center of the city within walking distance. Summer sports, sea activities and cruises are readily available.
