In April Cyprus is starting to warm up. In the beginning of the month it might still feel quite chilly at night and sometimes during the day but by the end of the month the weather gets hotter and you feel that summer is near.

3. What clothes to wear in April
You will mostly use your summer clothes. At day time you will probably wear shorts, t-shirt, swimming suit etc. You should also have a sweater and a pair of pants for the night or in case the weather turns a bit cooler than normal. Below are a few photos I have taken during January so that you can get a better idea of the weather and what most people wear. Suitable clothes for April include medium-weight and summer apparel with light jumpers or long sleeved cotton for the evenings.
4. Sleeping at night
For sleeping you do not need to use the A/C or have the windows open. The room temperature is comfortable and a piece of sheet is enough. Mosquitoes will not bother you in April.
5. Going to the beach in April
The sea water temperature depends on your destination. In the south coasts of Limassol, Larnaca and Ayia Napa the waters are shallower and warmer with temperatures of 24-26 °C in V. The west cost of Paphos and northern coasts of Latchi have colder waters with temperatures of 22-24 °C in April.
6. Fresh local fruits of April
April is a perfect time for nature walks before all the greenery is parched by the hot summer sun. It is also a good idea to enjoy an off-road adventure in the untouched Akamas Peninsula that is a home for 700 plant species, of which 40 are endemic. See the Baths of Aphrodite in April as well where pink cyclamen flowers make a fascinating adornment.
