Where should you go on a honeymoon in April?

Short answer

In April, choose somewhere with mild spring weather, such as the Canary Islands, Morocco, or a European city like Paris or Amsterdam, where flowers are in bloom.

April is a month of changeable weather in the UK, so many couples look for destinations that offer warmth without being too hot. The Canary Islands are a reliable choice, with temperatures in the low twenties and plenty of sunshine. Morocco is another good option, with warm days and cooler nights, perfect for exploring markets and staying in a riad.

If you prefer a city honeymoon, Paris, Amsterdam or Lisbon are lovely in April. The cherry blossom and tulips are out, cafes have outdoor seating, and the crowds are smaller than in summer. For something more adventurous, consider Jordan or Cyprus, where you can enjoy history and sunshine without the peak season heat.

If you want to stay closer to home, Cornwall or the Cotswolds can be peaceful in April, with spring flowers and quieter roads. Just pack for rain as well as sun, because April showers can happen anywhere.

Think about what kind of honeymoon you want: relaxing on a beach, exploring a city, or hiking in nature. April offers a good balance, as many destinations are not yet crowded, and prices are often lower than in summer. Check the local climate for your chosen place, and book early if you want a specific hotel or room.
