Cyprus enjoys a typical Mediterranean
climate, with
long dry summers from mid-May to mid-October and with mild winters from
December to February, which are separated by short autumn and spring
seasons. Summer is the season of quite high temperatures with cloudless
skies in Cyprus, but the sea breezes create a pleasant atmosphere in the
coastal areas. Winters are mild with some rainfall, but even in January
(usually the coolest month) there are generally six hours of bright
sunshine during the day. During the summer months very light clothing is
all that one needs. In spring and autumn, daytime temperatures are
generally warm enough for light summer clothing, but in the evening times,
one might feel the need for a light jacket or pullover. In winter, you
should be prepared for all kinds of weather that a European spring may
bring. It is advisable to pack a light jacket and pullovers, even though
you may not need them during the day.
