Larnaca's air quality reflects the southern Cyprus coastal position on Larnaca Bay, with vehicle traffic on the A1 motorway and Larnaca International Airport's aviation operations contributing elevated NOₓ alongside the port's industrial emissions. Mediterranean sea breezes generally provide coastal ventilation, while Saharan dust intrusions from North Africa periodically deliver dramatic PM10 episodes and the airport's combined aviation and ground traffic makes Larnaca more aviation-influenced than most Mediterranean coastal cities.
