Most tourist guides, including the official Cyprus tourist guide, will tell you that "Cyprus has over 340 days sunshine per year."
So many first time visitors pack a case with warm weather clothing, not thinking for a minute it might rain!
Yes of course, Cyprus DOES enjoy a wonderful Mediterranean climate with plenty of sunshine, but even the coastal areas have an average of 57 days rain per year, so do the maths!
We can have brilliant sunshine one minute and monsoon rains the next, especially in the cooler months between November and March. For guaranteed sunshine without a drop of rain, sun worshippers visit Cyprus in July or August. But for many people, including me, Cyprus summers are TOO hot.
If you're thinking about visiting Cyprus in spring, autumn or the very short winter season and want to know what the weather is really like from October through to early May, check out my Cyprus weather by season page.

Thinking of buying a place in the sun in Cyprus?
The Cyprus weather forecast can be very fickle in the winter months between January and end February; it can be gloriously sunny one day only to be cold, wet and very windy the next.
Top Tip: If you are planning to BUY a property and move here permanently, make sure you have some form of heating, even near the coast. This can be either air con units which pump out warm air or arrange to install central heating pipes or underfloor heating BEFORE the house is finished.
