What to expect
Daytime
Mild afternoons in Alicante are the prize in April. You can eat outside on the good days. You still want something for the breeze.

Rain
April is the wet side of the year in Alicante. Days can be heavy. Plans that cannot survive rain are the wrong plans.
This is not a reason to skip Alicante if you like the place. It is a reason to pack for weather and to stop treating every grey hour as a failed holiday.
