Climate and Average Weather in Cyprus
Cyprus is the third largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and one of its most popular tourist destinations. It has a Mediterranean climate along the coast and Semi-arid climate around the capital Nicosia with long, hot and dry summers. Winters are relatively mild with some rain between December and February.
The best travel time for Cyprus is from mid-April to mid-October. July and August is high season and because of the high temperatures we recommend to only visit the coast in this period. Cultural tourists can best visit Cyprus in the second half of April, in the first half of October or in the months of May, June and September.
