What to pack

What April feels like

April usually delivers the island's finest swimming with none of the summer weight in the air. The Conch Republic independence celebration takes over a week late in the month and is exactly as unserious as it sounds.

Real rain shows up about 3 days all month; the rest stay dry. It’s sticky — light fabrics and an afternoon break earn their keep.

Can you swim?

The ocean runs about 80° — bath-warm.
