Limassol in December
Not the best time
December wraps up the year with Limassol in full winter mode. Christmas markets and decorations add charm, but expect limited outdoor activities and frequent rain that keeps you hunting for covered terraces.
Weather
December brings Limassol's wettest weather with frequent rain showers and overcast skies dominating. Cool temperatures and humidity around 65% make it feel genuinely winter-like. You'll get maybe 5-6 hours of sunshine on clear days.

All Months
April through June gives you perfect weather without the crowds. Temperatures hover around 24°C, the sea is swimmable, and hotel prices haven't hit peak season yet. The wine harvest happens in September, making it ideal for vineyard visits.
September and October are golden months. The sea stays warm from summer (22°C), but the crushing heat breaks. Locals return from their August holidays, so restaurants and bars are fully operational again.
July and August? Only come if you love 35°C heat and don't mind sharing beaches with every British family on holiday. Hotel prices double, and good restaurant tables book weeks ahead. But the nightlife peaks, and every beach club is in full swing.
Winter (December-February) sees temperatures around 16°C with occasional rain. Most beach clubs close, but it's perfect for exploring the historic sites without sweating through your shirt. Plus, wine tours are less crowded and sometimes include harvest activities.
