With the advent of autumn, the exhausting heat that has been terrorizing Cyprus tourists all summer, gradually disappears, and in return comes the "velvet season" - a welcome for the elderly, young children and those who could not come to the island before, fearing that the weather in Cyprus will be too hot.

At this time the sun is still warm, but it does not burn, but warms gently and affectionately. Weather forecast for Cyprus in September: daytime temperatures reach +30 ° C in Larnaca and + 28 ° C in Paphos, and at night the air cools to +20 ° C. The water remains warm (+ 26 ° C), because the holiday in September is loved by many tourists even more than the summer.

Another reason why Cyprus connoisseurs prefer the velvet season is that at that time a large some of the tourists return home, and so the queues are much smaller, the streets become more calm, and in cafes and restaurants one does not have to be satisfied with the most "crowded" tables.

However, it is still possible to get sunburns lying on the beach, so do not skimp on a protective cream and try Do not spend on the beach a lunch hour. Another nuance: with the end of the month the temperature gradually decreases, the weather in Cyprus begins to change, so you may need a light sweater for evening walks.

Despite the fall, nature does not yet think of falling asleep, on the contrary, after the exhausting heat, greens appear again, and in the gardens and vineyards ripen a wide variety of fruits and berries, and not enjoy them - it's just a sin.

September is the time of harvest and the time when local chefs demonstrate their skills. For example, in Ayia Napa there is a culinary festival, where you can not only taste various treats, but also buy artisan crafts. And in Limassol everything does not stop the wine festival, which begins in August. At this time, various attractions are held in the city, so you can visit the festival with your children.
