Consider North Cyprus for your next holiday destination and you can’t be disappointed, it’s the jewel of Med and the temperatures suit both those looking to sunbathe all day and those who prefer their holidays a little cooler. North Cyprus holiday weather.

North Cyprus generally enjoys mild and short winters, so for the majority of the year you will find yourself basking in warm sunshine in the spring and autumn, with rather hotter, often blistering temperatures in the summer months!

Summer can begin as early as March even though officially it doesn’t start until June, but by then temperatures are already in the 30s (around 86F).  It is pretty much gauranteed that there will be no rainfall from June to September when the days are long and hot.  Nights can sometimes be a little uncomfortable – a fan or an air-conditioning unit soon stifle the night-time heat and allow for restful sleep.

North Cyprus in late September, early October sees the temperatures drop a few degrees, but still perfect for sunbathing and swimming well into November.  Rainfall can also start around this time, but it tends to bring relief and is brief, bringing the earth a much-needed soaking.

Officially the seasons in North Cyprus are Autumn in October, Winter from November to March, Spring in April and May and Summer from June to September.
