Public transport in Limassol
Limassol's buses are run by EMEL, the Limassol Public Transport company, and the network is all bus: there is no rail anywhere in Cyprus. Routes radiate from two main terminals, the Old Port station on the seafront near the castle and the My Mall terminal in the west, with the long coastal line along the tourist strip to Amathus and Agios Tychonas carrying most visitors.
Tickets are bought from the driver or loaded on the Motion card, the island-wide smart card introduced for all Cypriot bus operators, which also has a mobile app. Timetables for EMEL, like those of the other Cypriot companies, are published in the national Cyprus by Bus system, so the same ticket logic applies whether you ride in Limassol or elsewhere on the island.
Limassol has no airport. Larnaca Airport to the east and Paphos Airport to the west are served from the city by the Limassol Airport Express shuttle and by Intercity Buses from the main terminals, which also run to Nicosia and Paphos. Regular night service is minimal; the last buses leave in the evening, so check the schedule before a late trip.

How do I get from Larnaca or Paphos Airport to Limassol by bus?
The Limassol Airport Express shuttle connects both airports with Limassol, and Intercity Buses run between the Limassol terminals and the other cities. Check which stop in Limassol each service uses before booking.
Which bus runs along the Limassol seafront to the hotels?
EMEL's main coastal route follows the seafront from the Old Port and the city centre east along the tourist strip to Amathus and Agios Tychonas, stopping at most of the large hotels.
What is the Motion card and does it work in Limassol?
Motion is the island-wide smart card for Cypriot buses, with a matching mobile app. It is accepted on EMEL buses in Limassol as well as on the other city networks and the intercity buses.
Is there a night bus in Limassol?
There is no regular all-night network. EMEL's last departures are in the evening, with a few routes running later in the summer season, so check the timetable for your line.
