Skala is a traditionally Turkish Cypriot neighbourhood in the town centre of Larnaca, Cyprus. One map puts the centre of Skala's seashore around 100 meters south of Larnaca Castle, at Lala Moustafa Pasha Street.

History

An article in the Dom Research Center-KURI Journal said that "Orthodox Christian Gypsies were also forcibly moved by the Turkish-Cypriot government from the area around Iskele to form a new community in Yeni Iskele or Skala".
