During April the
days begin to get longer and the
temperature
rise steadily
up to
around 20°C. You
can have misty starts to the morning clearing away quickly to give
very pleasant days and nights. There will be the odd days of rain
but rarely for long periods. It is a good
time to visit as there are fewer tourists around!
Sunrise around 7.30am, sunset around 6.30pm.
