With 340 days of sunshine, there’s really not much more to say! Cyprus is in the Mediterranean climate zone, and so benefits from short mild winters and long dry & warm summers. The island is famed for its sunshine and its long swimming season.If you're looking for sunshine and all year round warmth, Cyprus is the place to be.
During the winter and spring months, occasional low pressure systems travel down the Mediterranean from the west. These bring welcome rainfall - and even snowfall to the higher peaks – welcoming adventurous skiers and encouraging the 1900+ flowering plants on the island to flourish.
In the Troodos Mountains, the temperature regularly falls below freezing near the mountaintops, and it is cold enough for snow to fall between December and March. Winter sports can be enjoyed on Mount Olympus - the highest peak in Cyprus - the best time for skiing being in February. In fact, Cyprus is one of only a few places in the world where you can go skiing in the morning, and then an hour later be lying on the beach topping up your sun tan!
- On average, the warmest month is July.
- On average, the coolest month is February.
- The maximum average precipitation occurs in December.
