Best time to go to Larnaca

Thanks to its hot, Mediterranean climate, Larnaca sees sunny weather for most of the year. Summers are sizzling, temperatures can soar up to a whopping 40°C in July, and the sun shines for at least ten hours a day. If that sounds a bit too hot to handle, explore Larnaca in April-May or September-October, where the weather averages in the mid-twenties – way more bearable but still sunny enough to get a good tan.
