Look For Prices of a Cheap Flight Only to Larnaca in Cyprus and Stay a While!
A Cyprus detailed map shows that the town of Larnaca lies on the South coast of the island, it was once the main port of Cyprus and the wealth from that era still shows in some very beautiful and gracious buildings in the old town. Some visitors visiting the East of the island, check for prices of a cheap flight only to Larnaca, Cyprus with the intention of dashing straight through the airport without spending time there, which I believe is a missed opportunity.
There have been major infrastructure improvements over the past 5 years, including the international airport on the western fringes of the town where Phase 1 of a new terminal with a capacity for 7.5 million passengers is nearing completion and will be opening in November 2009. Phase 2 will increase capacity again to 9 million passengers in 2010. This will please travellers looking at prices of cheap flight only to Larnaca, Cyprus as the increase in the numbers of flights can only bring more choice and competition.
There are lots of local attractions, beautiful beaches, great scenery and as a Cyprus detailed map will show; a wealth of historical interest around the town including the church of St Lazarus, the stunning Hala Sultan Tekke Muslim shrine, standing on the salt lake which in spring is pink with flamingos, beautiful Panagia Angeloktistos church in Kiti and the monastery of Stavrovouni to name but a few. Central Larnaca has a beautiful seafront promenade called Finikoudes after the tall palm trees that line it, at one end there is the large marina and the restored old customs houses, at the other end there is the Fort built by the Turks in 1625 which is now a museum.
Cyprus property for sale is popular here for a multitude of reasons; the proximity of the airport to their homes and the prices of cheap flight only to Larnaca, Cyprus, it is a thriving year-round working town, home to islands second port and a large marina. There are villages around the main town where many ex-pats have bought Cyprus property for sale and settled into life and enjoy the weather; June, July, and August are the very hot summer months, spring and autumn are lovely when it is warm enough to swim but not uncomfortably hot. November to March is the rainy season but still averages only eight or nine rainy days per month.
Another major attraction for Cyprus property for sale in the locality is the upcoming new championship golf course at Tersefanou which the Cyprus detailed map shows in to the west of Larnaca and just a 15 minute drive from the airport, which means that golfers checking for prices of cheap flight only to Larnaca Cyprus, can be off the plane and ready to tee-off within no time at all!! The planning process has seemed painstakingly slow for this development, but a breakthrough came in December 2008 with the official approval of the environmental impact assessment of the golf project and its desalination unit, the final official Town Planning Approval is expected within the next months.
