Summer stretches from mid-May to mid-October and means high temperatures, cloudless skies and cooling breezes from the sea.
![]() | Its the ideal season for swimming, sunbathing and a whole range of watersports from sailing to scuba diving. At this time of year, explore the archaeological sites early in the morning or in late afternoon, avoiding the hottest part of the day. Its always a good idea to bring along sun protection, such as sunscreen and a broad-brimmed hat. |
Even in the height of summer when its 32C (90F) degrees at the beach (and warmer inland), temperatures are refreshingly cooler in the Troodos, making the mountains ideal for hiking or simply relaxing. You can find your ideal Cyprus weather temperatures even in the middle of the summer. The days of September and October are still sunny and the water warm enough for comfortable swimming. Basically, its still summer. In Lemesos, the first ten days of September bring the annual Wine Festival, a buoyant period not to be missed.
