Land-based tourists enjoy the palm-lined harbor promenade and the city’s international caliber shops, inviting cafes and panoramic Mediterranean views.

Larnaka is an attractive and quiet city which is the same all year round unlike many other areas of Cyprus, which tend to be very busy during the summer months and extremely quiet during the winter.

Why Cyprus?

COST OF LIVING

Cyprus enjoys a high standard of living at a lower cost than many other European countries. A recent international poll showed Cyprus to have one of the lowest costs of living within a developed nation. The modern supermarkets in Cyprus offer a large variety of local and imported goods.

The cost of eating out is very reasonable. At most restaurants diners can eat for between €10 and €25 per person. Cypriots enjoy their food and the island boasts a wide variety of restaurants catering for all tastes.

THE LEGAL SYSTEM

The legal system in Cyprus is based on the British legal system. Legal fees are, however, much lower than in the UK and other European countries.
