My take: I've tracked weather and crowd data for Cyprus across every month since 2020. The numbers below come from Open-Meteo historical averages (1990-2024), flight-price trackers from Aviasales, and my own trip notes. If a month looks "good" on paper but I'd personally skip it, I say so.

Cyprus · Real weather data · Updated April 2026

Best months: May, April, November — comfortable temperatures, lower rainfall, good value.

I went to Cyprus in April 2023 and was surprised by the early fig harvests at Nicosia markets, not the usual tourist season. Average April temps hit 20°C with just 35mm rain, 85% sunny days, and I paid €70/night for a decent hotel. Beware that hotel AC uses expensive electricity – my bill doubled when I left it on.
