When to go to Cyprus?

With its mild, sunny, year-round Mediterranean climate, you can visit Cyprus whenever you like. However, we recommend the months of April, May, September and October to avoid the hot summer and the winter rains - Cyprus is less crowded and temperatures remain moderate.

Cyprus is subject to a Mediterranean climate and enjoys excellent sunshine all year. Summer (May to October) is dry and warm with a maximum temperature of 35°C in July and August. Sea breezes can moderate the high temperatures and heatwaves. Autumn and spring, on the other hand, are not so hot, yet have plentiful sunshine and are therefore more conducive to sightseeing. Winter is wetter and very mild, especially on the plains which have a moderate climate with average temperatures of 17°C. From November to January, the island experiences fairly significant rainfall. It can even snow in Cyprus on the summit of Mount Troodos where you can ski. The sea temperature is quite pleasant in Cyprus - between 17°C in winter and 27°C in summer.
When to visit Cyprus ? We suggest you opt for April and May and September and October to take full advantage of the island's beaches and cultural tours.
