Getting Hot: Gran Canaria Weather in April

Gran Canarias weather in April Gran Canarias weather in April

Gran Canaria really heats up during April as the tiny amount of winter chill leaves the air. 

The average day temperature is 22ºC but it often reaches 30ºC on the beaches. The water temperature is 19ºC but is often warmer in shallow areas.

On average it rains for one day during April and is sunny for 7.5 hours every day. April is the perfect month to come to Gran Canaria if you want sunshine and warmth but don't like the intense summer heat. The end of April is basically the beginning of summer in Gran Canaria. 

April is also when the flowers all over the island go crazy. The top of the island is carpeted in yellow broom flowers and wildflowers grow everywhere outside the resorts. Walking is Gran Canaria in April is as good as it gets. You still need an extra layer in the mountains but it’s warm most days.

Come to Gran Canaria in April for the best of both worlds in Gran Canaria. The Cumbres are spectacular and the beaches are balmy.

  • The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast
    The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast

    The single most common question we get in the Gran Canaria Info group is...

    What is the weather going to be like during my holiday?

    The answer is almost always the same: If you are going to south Gran Canaria's resorts, it is very likely to be sunny every day. Yes, even in the winter. Yes, even though your weather app says it is going to be cloudy. Yes, even in January. And in February, etc.

    Obviously it does sometimes rain in Gran Canaria, even in the sun-baked south, and there are occassional cloudy days. 

    To check for these rare rain and clouds there is no point using generic weather apps because they use data that averages out the weather and temperature across Gran Canaria.

    This means that the forecast for Puerto Rico and other resorts includes weather and temperatrure predictions for inland and highland areas that are cooler and cloudier.

    So, instead of believing your current weather app use the Spanish weather service website called the AEMET. It's website has detailed and very accurate forecasts for individual resorts, town and even beaches.

    Here's the forecast for the Mogán area including Puerto Rico.

    The mobile website works very well in English although the app is only in Spanish at the moment.
