The climate of Kyrenia (Cyprus)
Kyrenia is located on the north coast of Cyprus on the Mediterranean
Sea in the Kyrenia district. The harbour is dominated by the
impressive Kyrenia castle. Off the coast a ship dating back to the 4th
century has been salvaged. The image of this ship can be found on
Cypriot coins. Just outside the city in the hills the beautiful
Bellapais Abbey can be found. Kyrenia has a warm Mediterranean climate
and is among the warmest coastal places in Europe. Because of its
situation on the leeward side there is little influence from the wind
causing temperatures to easily rise. During the summer it may be very
hot. From April till October precipitation figures are extremely low
in Kyrenia.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
