Best time to go to Larnaca Area

Cyprus is closer to the Middle East than it is to Greece. As such, summers are really hot, with temperatures often climbing to 40 degrees in June, July and August. If you like things a bit cooler, try April, May or October, when the mercury levels hover between 17 and 25 degrees.

Passports & Visas

British citizens don’t need a visa to enter Cyprus but must have a valid passport. You can check your passport’s valid for Cyprus using our handy tool. For the most up-to-date passport and visa info, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/cyprus/entry-requirements.

Don't forget to arrange your travel money and insurance before you go.

Health & Safety

You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance to cover you while you’re away. If you’re travelling to the EU and you apply for a card now, you'll get a new UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) instead of an EHIC. This entitles you to emergency medical treatment on the same terms as Cypriot nationals. It won’t, however, cover you for medical repatriation, ongoing medical treatment or non-urgent treatment. Visit www.nhs.uk/ehic for full details on what it covers. You do not need to apply for a GHIC if you already have an EHIC. Your EHIC remains valid in the EU until it expires. An EHIC or GHIC is free of charge. For the latest health and safety information, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/cyprus/health
