What you gain in April

  • 18°C: warm enough for the Riva, Diocletian's Palace, and day trips to nearby islands
  • Green Market (Pazar) at peak spring freshness: tomatoes, cherries, courgettes, local produce
  • Most ferries to Brač, Hvar, and Šolta back on schedule

What you sacrifice

  • 67mm: rain still meaningful, particularly early April afternoon showers
  • Sea still cool (16°C) — swimming possible for the brave but not comfortable
  • Easter weekend can bring a short-term surge in domestic visitors
