April will finally be here tomorrow, and with that, the official tourist season makes a start. The Mediterranean climate becomes increasingly mild and pleasant around this time of year, and with the temperatures we have been experiencing recently, April is going to be a hot month. The sunshine rate increases and the average temperatures range between 11ºC and 20ºC. Even so, April nights are still quite cool in Mallorca.
