Cyprus Properties and climate

For the past couple of years Cyprus has had quite wet winters with the dams full and some even overflowing! Those that have lived in Cyprus a while and went through water shortages will know how precious water has been in the past and are quite happy with all the rain. Another benefit is that it leaves the countryside looking green and lush and you almost think that that you are in a different country.

The children although gone by themselves and away for hours they will be perfectly safe, another real bonus of living in Cyprus.

This year the rainfall lessened and the weather has been far drier and quite mild. You can enjoy some wonderful winter sun and realize how lucky you are when you watch the weather reports showing blizzards in northern Europe!

The winter months here see a lot of older visitors to our shores. Some come and stay to get away from colder climates others find it a good time to come and visit their relatives living here and to avoid the hotter weather later in the year. Our friends love coming over at this time of the year as they enjoy walking through the Village we live in and seeing the mass of citrus trees laden with fruit. As they often remark oranges and lemons smell like they used to here and they gain great pleasure in receiving them as gifts.
