The Mediterranean climate of Cyprus ensures a pleasant and warm March with the coming spring bringing the best out of everyone, people and nature itself. You may find trips to the mountains as well as strolling across the local beaches to be an exhilarating experience for both body and mind as the weather in Cyprus during this part of the year is still relatively fresh. Beaches are relatively uncrowned and visiting them for a peaceful swim usually is a must for visitors especially from northern courtiers such as the Scandinavian region, Russia the UK etc. - average sea temperature is 17°C (63.4°F).

Many events are held during March of which the International Marathon in Limassol takes advantage of the perfect weather conditions for running long distances. During March wildflowers and all sorts of other vegetation begin to bloom all over Cyprus and the Almond trees put on their wedding dresses, preparing for the long and feast full summer.

Due to these delightful weather conditions during March many festivals and outdoor activities are always around to corner for the most demanding of visitors. In March you would expect the sun to be shining for more than an average of 10 hours a day.
