Things To Do During April

Weather In Malta In April

  • Our first recommendation is to visit the city of Mdina and Valletta and explore the beauty within the fortifications.
  • Go for a day to Gozo. Being that the hot weather hasn't arrived yet, the island will be full of green countryside, perfect for afternoon walks.
  • Go and see the islands, catch hop-on hop-off tours. There are four separate tours, north tour, south tour, night tour and Gozo tour. You can spread the tour on two days and stop in the many historical locations.
  • Shopping is highly popular as Malta has several department stores around the island, namely in Sliema and St Julian's. Valletta is another shopping hotspot with many shops in Republic Street.
  • If you like to go to the bar and have a drink and watch football games, you can visit Bugibba and Qawra and entertain yourself.
  • If you intend to visit Malta during the Easter period, there will be many Good Friday processions and also Easter Sunday morning functions. Easter varies between March and April.

Quick April In Malta Thoughts

Weather In Malta In April

Spring time, winter feels already past by. Windy days, rain still with us but not much. Starting of spring time in Malta. By beginning mid-April the weather is changing towards summer.

Beautiful countryside, sunbathing starts, sea temperature still too cold to swim. But sunbathing is pleasant as the temperature is still not that high.

Beautiful hot days if not cloudy or windy but much less by now as winter is over. No more cold weather like January and February.

You can see people wearing lighter clothes. Even during certain days with shorts and tee shirts. In direct sunlight, the sun will be very hot.

More tourists arrive on the islands. It is fantastic weather for them. They wear summer clothes. You can observe that many go for sunbathing, even swimming although the sea will still be cold so few dare jump in.

Bad weather can still be with us, just be prepared and see the weather forecast before you come over but by this time it is more stable getting closer to summer.
