About Finikoudes beach and promenade

Finikoudes is the town beach of Larnaca, lined with palm trees along Athens Avenue. The sand slopes gently into usually calm water, which makes it an easy option with young children.

Everything is close by: cafés, ice cream, toilets and the small Larnaca fort at the southern end. The promenade is good for an evening stroll with a pushchair.
