City in Cyprus

Limassol

4 things to see

Limassol is Cyprus’s second city, where the long seafront promenade and the lively old town cost nothing to stroll. Prices climb along the tourist-heavy waterfront but drop sharply once you head inland to the Troodos mountain villages, an easy and rewarding budget detour. Spring and autumn keep the coast warm without the peak-summer crowds and rates.
