The
Cyprus landscape displays a great variety of styles. There are sandy beaches and shingle beaches. The precipitous mountains are mainly tree-covered to their peaks. The rest of the island is fertile hilly country.
The good thing about Cyprus is that no matter what time of year you visit, the weather is almost certainly going to be good.
Cyprus is one of the few islands in the world that doesn't have to differentiate between winter and summer activities - when you plan your cruise to Cyprus, you should include some key factors to take full advantage of the trip. Start by creating a list of things you would like to do. A great place to find adventurous things to do is the brochure from the cruise line. Pay very close attention to the places you will pass by and ports of call your cruise ship will dock in.
Cyprus does have seasons, though cooler seasons like autumn and winter are very short-lived. Winter lasts from December to February and plays host to several varieties of bird life. Winter-visiting birds, such as flamingos, herons, glossy ibis and egrets, fly to Cyprus each year to feed at the salt lakes near Larnaka Airport. They usually arrive in December just after the first rains. Bird watchers often flock to Akrotiri during December to view the vast array of birds and capture some great photographs.
