Meanwhile, there are plenty of places on Earth where the winter cold has long passed, where tulips are already blooming and juicy fruits are ripe, where cities washed by spring rain coquettishly look out from under a veil of fresh foliage. So there is no need to wait for summer to come - you can go on vacation right now. You will find countries where you can relax in April with children in our review.

Many people believe that mid-spring is only suitable for sightseeing trips. However, the list of options for where to go in April is somewhat wider: from the sea coast warmed by the hot sun to high-mountain glaciers, where in warm time year you can ski.

Where to go to the sea in April

By April, even in moderate latitudes, the sky becomes so blue and the sun so bright that people begin to rush into summer, and with it, a vacation at sea. Meanwhile, it is very easy to organize a beach holiday in April, fortunately, in warmer climes the holiday season is in full swing. We have selected best countries for a holiday with children in mid-spring.

March-April is the peak season in the UAE. The air and water at this time have the same temperature, about +28-32°C, and the luxurious beaches are pleasant to relax with children of any age. But as soon as the heat seems tiring, you can move your vacation to a park (the country in the desert amazes with the abundance of greenery) or to air-conditioned entertainment centers. in April it is also an opportunity to see the camel festival and camel racing.

April in Thailand is the end of the high season: in May it will rain and there will be a storm at sea. But mid-spring promises hot weather, calm sea and empty beaches. in April is suitable for families with older children, since it will be more difficult for children to acclimatize during humid climate at air temperature +30°C. Whichever you choose, there will be traditional Thai entertainment, such as elephant and crocodile shows, everywhere. However, the country has many other very interesting places for family excursions. By the way, on April 13, Thais celebrate Songkran - their own New Year. Which child would refuse to receive New Year's gifts again?

It makes sense to consider beach tours in April. While the mainland countries are just getting rid of warm clothes, the Canary Islands are already basking in the summer warmth. The weather in Tenerife in April pleases tourists yearning for the sun, but the water in the ocean, warmed up to only +20°C, is suitable only for seasoned swimmers. But in April it will appeal to those who like to travel actively. The island has many family-friendly attractions, from to.

If you are looking for not just a beach holiday abroad in April, but an exotic holiday, why not among African countries not choose Tunisia? The weather in Tunisia in April does not promise heat, the air temperature is only about +22°C, the water temperature is about +18°C. But in swimming pools and water parks the water is heated, and children's play pools are admired even by adults. Holidays in Tunisia in April are also good because the high season has not yet begun at this time, so the holiday budget will be pleasantly reduced.

It is not easy to list all the countries where it is warm in April. You may want to discover the beaches of Vietnam, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, the Dominican Republic, and the Maldives. Or maybe your travel map is missing Goa or the island of Mauritius?
