October in Cyprus

Where do we go to the beach in October? Simple. In Cyprus!
The maximum 30 degrees you will have during the day are also perfect to enjoy the beach and to visit the island.

Wondering if it rains in October? This also happens, usually in the mountains and maybe in Nicosia. It is not unusual to have a few drops in the coastal area, especially if you choose to go to Paphos.

In over ten years in Cyprus, I caught only one October when the weather was not at all good for the beach in the last two weeks of the month.
It made up for it then with gorgeous weather in November!

So if you’re crazy about the beach, maybe it wouldn’t hurt to check the forecast a bit before buying the tickets, unless it’s a vacation planned long in advance.

🚩 You can have something like this almost just for yourself 👉 Makronissos and Landa Beach Ayia Napa

Here are the 6 reasons to come to Cyprus in October

1. The weather is more friendly. 🌞

Temperatures of maximum 30 degrees during the day, with mild sun, and minimum of 20 degrees at night. Towards the end of the month, the highs can reach somewhere around 26 degrees during the day, which means it’s still super ok to stay in the sun all day.

2. Sea water is usually warm. ⛵

Even towards the end of the month it remains at  24 degrees in most years. Plus, if you’re a wave lover, you might catch these too. And the waves of the Mediterranean are superb, big enough but at the same time safe to enjoy it at the shore. Tested, proven, I recommend with confidence!

3. You have the best beaches for yourself.  🏖

The famous beaches where you barely have room to put a towel in the summer are free now. So take your pick – Fig Tree Bay, Nissi Beach, Makronissos…

4. It is perfect for trips and walks. 🚵‍♂️

More “normal” temperatures will make visits to the island’s villages much more pleasant. The asphalt doesn’t burn as much anymore and the Cypriot autumn wind lets you wander to your heart’s content just about anywhere you go. In the mountains, it doesn’t hurt to have a blouse with you, just in case…

5. Lower prices. 🧐

Air tickets and accommodation are cheaper because we are at the end of the season on the island. Maybe a few restaurants closed earlier to remind you that winter is also coming. But otherwise, everything is super ok for those who don’t prefer the crowds and hustle and bustle of summer.

6. It’s perfect for City Break. 🌆

October seems to me to be the perfect month if you want a City Break. If you want to have the hustle and bustle of the city, but at the same time access to the sea and the beach, then you have a choice: Larnaca may be your destination, because the plane will land here.

You will find accommodation for all tastes and budgets, there are enough places to visit around, plus you can easily reach anywhere on the island from here.

Paphos is also a vey good choice for this time of year.

🚩 You have here detailed information about the public transport on the island 👉 Info Cyprus: Money. Public transport. Transfer from the airport

If you don’t want to rent a car because you don’t want to drive on the left, don’t worry – there are buses available to take you to Nicosia, Limassol and even Paphos.
