The gorgeous European island that's not overrun by tourists and 28C in October

There is a gorgeous European island where temperatures can reach 28C in October, with stunning beaches, great food and plenty for tourists to do. Brits were spoiled with hot weather this year, with record-setting temperatures. However, things have taken a turn, and much of Britain has become quite chilly. But for Brits who want to get one last taste of summer before winter truly arrives, there is a stunning spot in Europe they should head to.

Think stunning beaches, gorgeous architecture, great food, and an exciting array of things for tourists to do. While the likes of Spain and Portugal are still enjoying hot temperatures as we move into Autumn, there is one place with high monthly temperatures where you are nearly guaranteed nice weather when you visit in October. Located in the Mediterranean Sea south of Turkey, Cyprus has plenty of deals for British tourists looking to escape in October.

Cyprus is less than a five-hour flight from the UK, with routes operated by TUI, Jet2, British Airways, Ryanair and easyJet. Brits can fly to Cyrus from London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Newcastle.

According to Cyprus Weather, the average high in the Mediterranean country in October is a staggering 28C, so Brits can expect blazing sunshine and lovely warmth when they decide to holiday in Cyprus in October. And there are plenty of ways to enjoy that weather in Cyprus.

The main resorts that attract tourists to the island are Paphos, Ayia Napa, Protaras and Limassol. Whichever area of Cyprus you choose to go to, there will be plenty for you to do.

On TripAdvisor, tourists have shared their reviews of attractions across the country, which have then been ranked in order of best-reviewed. The top thing to do in Cyprus, according to tourists, is Nissi Beach, a spot located in the southeast of the island, known for its crystal clear blue waters and near-white sand.

It really looks like it was yanked straight out of a postcard. Plus, there are plenty of hotels and luxury resorts surrounding the beach, so it's a good place to base yourself for some fun in the sun when in Cyprus.

Cyprus is also home to Paphos Aphrodite Waterpark, which visitors have praised for its array of waterslides and fun for all ages. Other top-rated attractions in the country include Kato Paphos Archaeological Park, Fig Tree Bay Beach, Tombs of the Kings, and WaterWorld.

There are almost too many stunning beaches in Cyprus to name. However, some of the most popular ones include Makronissos Beach, Konnos Bay and Landa Beach.

While October remains hot in Cyprus, the country enjoys quite attractive weather well into autumn and winter. In November, tourists can expect high temperatures of around 21C.

Things get colder in December, however, with highs of around 17C. In the summer months, temperatures can get to a staggering 36C, so it might not be the place for a summer holiday if you struggle to keep cool during a heatwave.
