Let the Sun Shine!
The Mediterranean climate in North Cyprus provides an abundance of enjoyable leisure activities throughout the year.
During the long summer days, you can bask in the sun on hot golden beaches and take refreshing dips in the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean. It's a delight for both kids and adults. However, it is advisable to seek beach-side shade and use sun cream as temperatures can easily exceed 40°C at the peak of summer.
The spring and autumn bring warm, pleasant weather that offers a refreshing break from the intense summer heat. Evenings can be cool enough to need a light jacket, creating perfect conditions for outdoor activities like cycling, hiking, nature watching, and various sports, including golf, tennis, water skiing, and snorkeling.
While locals typically enjoy swimming in the Mediterranean from June to September, visitors from cooler climates often start as early as April and continue until November, making the most of the extended warm season.
Even paradise experiences winter, but North Cyprus has a pleasantly mild winter. The coldest month, January, averages around 10°C. It’s a perfect time for a relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. You can enjoy the tranquility of Cypriot life, recharge your batteries amidst stunning scenery, and savour the delicious cuisine.
