Sunny every day, no rain, no heat spikes. The week to book.
Days 1–5 are usually reliable, 6–10 drift, 11–14 are the model guessing. Check again the day before you fly — more on what this can and can't do.
When to go
From the 2026 climate study, not the live forecast.Structural odds, not a verdict — the live forecast can still surprise either way.
The mildest winter of any European destination (sea 21.6°C even in February). April–May and October–November are the swimmable shoulder seasons. July and August routinely exceed 35°C — Cyprus inland touched 45°C in 2023, even Troodos mountains hit a record 36°C. Cyprus is EU but not Schengen.
