Milder than London, rather than properly hot

April suits travellers who prefer being active in mild weather to sitting out in sustained heat. Alcudia's average daytime high is 18.3°C, compared with London's 13.5°C, so the difference should feel useful without being a leap into summer. The warmer days reach around 21°C or more, making lighter clothing reasonable when conditions allow, but do not plan around 25°C heat. Nights average 12.7°C, with the colder ones dropping to around 10°C or below. Pack a jumper and a jacket for evenings, and keep a layer handy during the day rather than assuming every afternoon will feel warm.

Useful sunshine, with room for wet-weather plans

About 7 hours of sunshine within 13.1 hours of daylight gives April plenty of scope for spending time outside. That is not the same as clear skies throughout the day, so keep your plans flexible rather than making every day depend on sunshine. There are about 7 rainy days during the month: rain is a genuine consideration, but it need not rule out an April trip. A light waterproof is a sensible addition to your luggage. Use sunnier spells for time outdoors and leave room to change plans when it rains, without assuming any particular part of the day will stay dry.

The sea is the main compromise

At an average of 15.4°C, the sea is cold, not merely a little fresh. Its April range of 15°C to 16°C also means that a warmer year is unlikely to change the swimming decision much. If comfortable sea swimming is central to your holiday, April is a poor fit; enjoying sunshine beside the water is a different proposition from getting into it. This month makes more sense for travellers who are happy with mild outdoor days and layered evenings. For a trip built around warmer weather, consider June, July or August instead, which rate best here overall, rather than expecting April to deliver summer conditions.
