Anyone been to Tenerife in April?
Discussion
We went Fuerteventura about 3 years ago now, same time April/ March and the weather was sound. The mrs was pregnant so weather wise it was perfect. 1 off day but rest of the time was lovely. Bit windy at times but i don't mind that as gives a break from the heat !
Another vote for jumper on evenings, if not for you then to ''lend'' to SWMBOforever the evening.

I'm going hand luggage only, so she'll have to pack the jumper(s) Another vote for jumper on evenings, if not for you then to ''lend'' to SWMBO

Honestly, I think you could book the Canaries at any time of year and be happy. I imagine it's a bit hot for small kids in the summer, but the Mrs and I went in Nov/Dec last year, swam in the sea before breakfast every morning and lay out in the sun.
Agreed. Tenerife (South) pretty much has a perfect holiday destination climate. Winters are warm, summers are hot (but not too hot) and it hardly ever rains.The Canaries are off the coast of southern Morocco. I think people picture them more northern than they really are.

I think we've been a 2 or 3 times in the past in April and it's been 'just-right'. Unheated pools at this time of the year are 'refreshing'.
We've booked 8 nights in April to Gran Canaria - hopefully it'll be a case of third time's a charm - Covid has seen our last two holidays cancelled by the operator. Our last holiday was to GC in April 2019.

Unheated pool? Oh, that's a bit disappointing. I'm not really a fan of a 'refreshing' pool! We've booked 8 nights in April to Gran Canaria - hopefully it'll be a case of third time's a charm - Covid has seen our last two holidays cancelled by the operator. Our last holiday was to GC in April 2019.

In my experience, if you're at a hotel and they have 3 or 4 pools, normally at least 2 of them will be heated - to a comfortable temperature. It depends on occupancy levels I expect. Siam Park is worth a visit for a day out if you're going to Tenerife.
