About the Larnaca–Paphos Route

Larnaca to Paphos is the longest of the popular intercity journeys, running the length of the southern coast. Most services are not direct: travellers usually take the Larnaca–Limassol coach and change at the Limassol intercity station for the Limassol–Paphos leg. The combined trip covers the A2, A1 and A6 motorways and is a budget-friendly way to move between the east and west of Cyprus, popular with travellers connecting from Larnaca Airport to the Paphos resorts.

How Often Buses Run

Because the trip usually involves a change in Limassol, total travel time depends on the connection — allow roughly two to two and a half hours end to end. Use the live map above to track both legs: confirm the Larnaca coach's arrival into Limassol, then watch for the onward Paphos service so your transfer lines up.

Tips for the Larnaca–Paphos Bus

• 1Plan the Limassol transfer with a buffer — back-to-back connections can be tight.
• 2Coming from Larnaca Airport? Take the airport shuttle to the Larnaca stops first.
• 3Travel earlier in the day to keep more onward Paphos departures as options.
