Wildfires in Cyprus now
Live map of possible wildfires in Cyprus, as detected by satellites over the last hours. Today's fire danger comes from the EU's Copernicus service.
The map shows areas of about 10 × 10 km where satellites measured heat that probably comes from vegetation. These are not confirmed fires, and the data is up to about 3 hours behind.
The fire season in Cyprus
Summers are hot and dry, and the large fires come in July. The Arakapas fire in July 2021 killed four people, and in July 2025 over 100 km² burned in the Limassol district, the largest fire recorded on the island.
