Weather in Cyprus

Cyprus enjoys a warm, Mediterranean climate that’s characterised by the region’s long, hot summers and mild, wet winters. Temperatures generally range from winter lows of 17°C to warm highs of 31°C in the summer. The warmest month is August, but it’s usually very warm from early June until October. With Cyprus being so close to south-west Asia, the region is one of the warmest parts of the Mediterranean. This means you’ll need to wear light clothing and keep on top of your sun protection to keep your skin safe. The best time to plan Cyprus holidays is in the summer which is when you'll experience the most heat and sunshine. Although, if you prefer milder temperatures then spring is perfect and the sea water is still mild enough for swimming. Winter is quite mild during the day with slightly cooler nights. There are slightly fewer hours of sunshine each day, but you’ll still have plenty of time to sightsee and explore the region.
