It's still an excellent time to visit, with long sunny days for the city and warm sea (around 26°C) for the beaches. The heat is more noticeable than in mid-winter, so plan outdoor walking for mornings and late afternoons, take a midday break, and drink plenty of water. UV is at its annual peak — sun protection is non-negotiable.

Havana in April — Full Picture
April closes out the dry season — typically the sunniest month, hot at around 29°C by day and 20°C at night, with rain still low (about 55mm) but humidity beginning to climb toward the wet-season pattern.
It's still an excellent time to visit, with long sunny days for the city and warm sea (around 26°C) for the beaches. The heat is more noticeable than in mid-winter, so plan outdoor walking for mornings and late afternoons, take a midday break, and drink plenty of water. UV is at its annual peak — sun protection is non-negotiable.
Demand stays high, lifted further around Easter, so book casas and paladares ahead and bring all your cash. April is the last month before the May-October wet and hurricane season sets in, so it's a sweet spot for combining reliable sun with warming water.
Usual practicalities: offline maps for the scarce internet, possible power outages, and an authorized category for US travelers.
