Salamis/Konstantia City-Site Transportation

Whether you're staying on the Greek side of the island or the Turkish northern part, you'll need wheels of some sort to get to Salamis.

It lies on the northern side of the Green line. Thus if you want to get to it from the south in the car you will need to go through border procedures - very simple really, you just get a visa for yourself and insurance for the car (12 pounds for three days when we visited). If you have been persuaded by your hire car company not to cross into the wild north then take what they say with a large pinch of salt - the drivers are no worse, you are insured, and security appeared to be no more of an issue than in the Greek part of the island (where your car is 1000% safer than in Britain for example).

Once you cross the border consult your map - Salamis lies north along the coast from Famagusta - it's right on the sea, so as long as you're looking out for the sign then you'll have no problems.
