What to expect in April
Warm and lively — about 65% of days meet our rideable-session threshold.
By April it is properly warm — around 28 °C air and water climbing past 22 °C — so a light shorty is all you need. Our station record shows about 65% of days reaching the rideable-session threshold, roughly two days in three. The beach gets lively around the Easter holidays, so book ahead if your dates fall over them.
One thing to expect every day, year-round: the wind here is a north/north-west thermal that builds late morning and peaks in the afternoon — so early mornings can be calm. We plan your sessions around that rhythm, and you can always check the live wind and our 16-day forecast before you head out.
