Weather in Dubrovnik in April

April in Dubrovnik is mild enough that walking is the default. This is a city-break month more than a sea-holiday month.

In Croatia, this is how Dubrovnik actually wears April, not how a country centroid would. Compared with August and January, April sits in the middle of Dubrovnik's year.
