What April is like
Warm days and fresh nights: an average high of 21.8 °C and a low of 11.9 °C. Rain falls to 15.2 mm, there are about 9 hours of sunshine a day, and the season starts to open up.
April is the eighth-warmest month of the year in Paphos and the seventh-wettest, with 4% of the year’s rain. By day it’s 2.6 °C warmer than March and 3.1 °C cooler than May.
Relative humidity at the airport averages 70% in April, the same as 70% over the year. These are the averages for Paphos Airport, on the coast 9 metres above the sea; Villa Prasino is in Peyia, on a hillside above the sea at Coral Bay, so take them as a guide to the season rather than a forecast.

Is April a good time to visit?
For walking and sightseeing, April is a good month: warm rather than hot, with an average high of 21.8 °C. Visit Cyprus gives no sea temperature for this month, so dip a toe before you plan a swim.
For ideas whatever the weather, see things to do in Coral Bay.
