Mackenzie Beach

Mackenzie Beach is one of Larnaca's most popular stretches of sand, a Blue Flag beach lined with coffee shops, restaurants and beach bars where you can easily spend a full day by the sea. Its soft sand and shallow, gently sloping water make it a comfortable choice for families with children, while sunbeds and umbrellas keep loungers relaxing under the sun. What truly sets Mackenzie apart is its location at the edge of Larnaca International Airport: planes pass low overhead as they approach for landing, creating a memorable, photogenic experience that draws aviation enthusiasts and curious visitors alike. With plenty of places to eat, drink and unwind close to the shoreline, it offers an easy, sociable beach day for groups, couples and families. Highly rated by visitors, it is a lively, well-serviced spot that feels a little different from the usual beach scene, though busy periods and paid facilities are worth keeping in mind.
