October weather in Limassol is sunny and moderate. It is not as hot as in the summer months but the temperature is still high and you can swim and enjoy the beach.

Sunglasses and sunblock is necessary for the beach. Below are a few photos I have taken during October so that you can get a better idea of the weather and what most people wear.

6. Activities in October

Summer activities on the beach are also good in September. Sun is still hot and water is warm so you can keep sunbathing and swimming. Water parks will not close till October. It is better to plan your excursions around the island for early morning or late afternoon to avoid the sun at its peak. Wine Festival that has started in the end of August continues in September so do not miss the chance to spend great time outdoor trying different local wines and traditional Cypriot food and watching dance and theater performances.

Recommended clothes in September are light-weight summer clothing for the day and light long sleeve top or shirt for evenings. Since it is still hot and very sunny do not forget about sun protection, such as hats, sunscreen and sunglasses as well as sun lotions.
