Should we consider Cyprus in November or is it time to look at Southeast Asia?

If the "hackneyed" description of the island as a place where the sun shines all year round does not convince you, let's figure it out - is autumn Cyprus popular at all, where is it better to go from the resorts and what do the reviews of tourists say over the past years?

P.S. And they also have to convince the prices of the tours - they are nowhere more profitable.

Do I need a visa to Cyprus?

Cyprus is a visa destination for Russians, but an entry permit (pro-visa) is received by:

  • online,
  • in 1-2 days
  • and free.

Submit your application on the website of the Cyprus Embassy, ​​print the document and take it with you on the plane. But! There is a mandatory point: the pro-visa "works" only for direct flights Russia-Cyprus - without transfers in other countries.

Weather in Cyprus in November

Two points about November Cyprus:

  • The last month of autumn is no longer included in the holiday season.
  • Nevertheless, until the 10th, everyone swims and sunbathes, and after that - those who are satisfied with a beach holiday even at + 20 ° C.

The climate in Cyprus is really successful - even at the end of November, the island is pleasantly warm, excellent weather for walking. That does not exclude clouds, wind and rain, but this can play out literally for 5 days out of 30 (so something is worth grabbing in case it is “cold”).

Temperature of water and air in Cyprus

The weather in Cyprus in November does not differ much from resort to resort - and the choice of where to relax does not depend on it. The air temperature does not drop below + 20 ° C all month, and at the beginning of November it also keeps at + 24 ° C. No stuffiness - you walk down the street at noon and just ho-ro-sho.

Is it possible to swim in November? In general, until the middle of the month the water temperature allows: strong + 23 ° C in the sea. In the end, it gets colder up to + 21 ° C, which is no longer for everyone.

Prices for tours to Cyprus in November - 2021

One of the most enjoyable parts of Cyprus in late autumn. You can catch both last minute deals and 5 stars for the price of "three rubles". I advise you to select your option for the required dates on aggregators:

  • Level.Travel
  • Travelata
  • Onlinetours

Here are collected tours from all leading tour operators. Set the filter "from cheap to expensive", and the service will show you the best deals. A couple of clicks - the hot tour is already yours.

✓ For the November holidays, you can fly inexpensively - from 40,000 rubles for two for 5 nights.

✓ Without reference to holidays, a standard 7-day tour costs from 38,000 rubles for two people.

✓ Family trips (mom, dad, child) to Cyprus are more expensive: prices in November 2021 start at 50,000 rubles per week; to a good hotel - from 65,000. Which, however, is also incomparable with the cost per season.

And if on your own?
Last year, airlines organized sales: for example, Ural Airlines offered to fly to Cyprus in November for 4000 rubles (the price for a round trip, super cheap)! S7 and Aeroflot also surprised - however, their tickets cost around 8,000 rubles.

Monitor promotions on:

  • Skyscanner
  • Aviasales

And for hotels or apartments - follow Booking and Airbnb.
Conclusion: vacation in Cyprus in November, I would evaluate (and ask the price) from all sides.

Cyprus resorts - where is the best place to relax in November?

The lower the season, the less the flow of tourists. And as the tourist industry says - if there is no one to make money on, then it's time to rest. During the first 10 days of November, some resorts, living off foreigners, are “phased out”. Taverns and shops are closing, hotels are emptying.

Where to relax in Cyprus in November?

  • Limassol - the largest city from the tourist zone; and livelier than everyone else in the off-season. Many locals live here, and the infrastructure has someone to function for. There are a lot of "status" hotels in Limassol, and it's also good to swim here - the beaches are sandy, the Mediterranean Sea is clean.
    Tip: Take a hotel near the Old Town.
  • Pathos - also with a sufficient share of settled Cypriots. The city itself and its surroundings are about history and sights associated with it. But there is a problem with the beaches: pebble, difficult entry into the water. The only suitable one is the sandy Coral Bay.
  • Larnaca - there are two zones: tourist, where there are continuous hotels; and urban (Finikoudes), where life continues even in winter. Where better to go is understandable.
  • Protaras - the best resort for the summer and not the most successful for the period from November to March. There are only a couple of shops, Starbucks and the Aquarium.
  • Ayia Napa - as in Protaras, there is a calm here. But both resorts can be chosen for a beach holiday in early November, while the water is good for swimming - the beaches here are too cool. Well, boredom is corrected by a rented car and traveling around Cyprus 🙂

Best hotels in Cyprus - top 7

What resort to choose in Cyprus - explained, now about hotels. The low season also affects them, many go on vacation from early November to spring.

Therefore, I made a selection of not just popular and good ones, but those hotels in Cyprus that receive tourists in late autumn and winter 2021.

AYIA NAPA

5 * Grecian Bay - like the next hotel, has an indoor heated pool. A worthwhile addition to a holiday without the sea.
Tour price: from 100,000 rubles

4 * Tsokkos Anmaria Beach - pool + breakfast and dinner: a great option for this price!
Tour price: from 60 000 rubles

3 * New Famagusta is a hotel adored by holidaymakers with children.
Tour price: from 80,000 rubles

LIMASSOL

3 * Harmony Bay Hotel - recently renovated with beautiful sea views (from family rooms).
Tour price: from 55,000 rubles

4 * Mediterranean Beach - for a calm, relaxing holiday: 1st line, one of the best beaches.
Tour price: from 80,000 rubles

4 * Atlantica Oasis - the main advantage: indoor heated pool.
Tour price: from 70 000 rubles

3 * Kapetanios Odysseia is a reliable and mega-popular "troika". As tourists say: if you don't know where to go (including your child), choose Odyssey.
Tour price: from 65,000 rubles

Entertainment in Cyprus - what to do in November?

This section depends on whether you drive a car or not.

If with a car.
Car rental in Cyprus is very much in demand. In high season, the price is appropriate - from 30 euros per day. At low - it is already more adequate, you can find it for 15-20 euros.

If we take a car abroad, then we book in advance, on aggregators. Usually these are Rentalcars, but for "neighboring" countries like Cyprus, Montenegro, Georgia or Greece, we like MyRentaCar. He works with local car rental companies and therefore the rental price is lower.

If without a car.
Exit - buses or excursions.
For example, prices from tour operators in the off-season (per person):

  • Fly to Israel in one day - from € 200 (and this is without air travel).
  • Bus excursions (around monasteries, sightseeing around the island, to the capital Nicosia) - on average € 45-50; individual up to 4 people - from € 270.
  • Jeep safari or sea cruises - € 45-60.

The sights of the island are mostly natural or historical (monasteries). Therefore, they are not subject to seasonality. The only thing is that if you are planning a vacation in Cyprus in November, then there is no point in visiting Salt Lake with pink flamingos - they will not be there.

Church of St. Elijah

From "mass" locations where any tourist visits:

✓ Cape Cavo Greco is such a picturesque arch in the rock in the sea.

✓ The Church of the Prophet Elijah is a holy place + a view of Protaras opens from here.

✓ Bay of Aphrodite.

✓ Troodos Mountains.

✓ Territories of Northern Cyprus (which belong to Turkey) - the town of Girne, the ruins of Salamis, Famagusta.

Holidays in Cyprus with children in November

Where is better?

Ayia Napa - an ideal sea for children, excellent sandy beaches, but ... after November 10, there are almost no tourists left here.

Limassol - the best option for Cyprus in November with children. A large city with many playgrounds, a promenade for walking, attractions and sandy beaches. Shops, cafes and hotels continue to operate - Cypriots themselves live in Limassol.

Do not forget that if a person under 18 is traveling without parents, you need to make consent to travel abroad from mom or dad.

What will children like?

  • Paphos Zoo (Pafos Zoo) - ticket: € 16.5 per adult and € 8.5 per child.
  • Ocean Aquarium - but recent reviews are bad. Ticket: € 14 and € 7.
  • Camel farm between Larnaca and Limassol (Camel Park) - there is also a playground. Ticket: € 5 and € 3 for entry; € 10 and € 8 with admission and skiing.
  • Masterland in Limassol is a themed game club where you can “turn in” your child for a few hours. An instructor is engaged with him, they study various professions. Ticket: € 15 for 4 hours and for 3 workshops.
  • Ayia Napa Sea Museum (Thalassa Municipal Museum) - ticket: € 4 and € 1.5.

Activities from the list above are year-round. Water parks in Cyprus will close by October 31, 2021. At the beginning of November, the amusement park Park Paliatso in Ayia Napa is still working, but not at full capacity.

How much does a vacation with a child cost?

  • Tour Cyprus in November 2021 costs from 55,000 rubles for three; all inclusive prices - from 80,000 rubles.

Reviews of tourists about Cyprus in November 2019

So, what will tourist reviews tell about Cyprus in November?

  • Weather: at the beginning of the month the sea is warm - last year it was as much as + 25 ° C. But the outdoor pools are not heated, the water is cold. It's not hot outside, + 22 ° C ... + 24 ° C, it's comfortable in a T-shirt.
  • The sun sets at 5pm, take into account for island trips.
  • Resort villages "freeze", choose cities - Paphos, Limassol or Larnaca. But not to say that they live like a season - in the same Paphos, the street of bars does not shine closer to winter.
