Price GLA → PFO on KiwiWhen to book
Cyprus has a proper Mediterranean climate rather than the Atlantic one that keeps the Canaries level all year — which means a real summer and a real winter, and a much wider swing between them. Paphos sits on the exposed south-west corner, so it gets the sea breeze that makes high summer bearable and the westerly weather that makes winter grey. The sea is the slow part: it holds warmth into the autumn and is at its coldest well after the air has started to recover, so late in the year the swimming stays good long after you would expect, and early in the year it stays poor long after the sun returns.

| Airport | PFO, Paphos International, about fifteen minutes from Kato Paphos and twenty-five from Coral Bay. Small, quick and easy. Larnaca (LCA) is the island's other airport and is well over an hour away — worth checking which one a cheap fare actually lands at. |
|---|---|
| Currency | Euro. Cyprus joined in 2008 and cards are accepted almost everywhere; village tavernas, the church key-holders in the Troodos and the beach kiosks want cash. |
| Language | Greek, with English spoken near-universally as a legacy of British administration and a large resident British population. Road signs are bilingual and menus are in English by default. |
