Temperature - late March early April?

[Cloverlady]

Hi to any regular March visitors!

We go in less than 2 weeks and we have been in mid March before - but years ago - and cannot for the life of me remember what the evenings were like

Will I need a light cardi thingie or hoody in the evenings? Or will it be warm enough not to pack any and rely on the hoody I will fly out in?

Thanks

Ooh and also mosquitoes. What is the score with these little darlings in March?

Thanks

I'm hoping the weather holds for another 3 weeks. It is going down to a low of 17 overnight, but I would imagine still in low twenties until midnight. Should feel much warmer for us Brits experiencing 7 degrees.

Are you staying in a Villa? I ask because I'm flying in Hoody and Jeans, in case temp does dip while there and if I need to, will give them a wash in the Villa if needed.

Hi Northern Dave

Yes, staying in a villa for part of our trip, and thought of the same, give it a wash through. If I need to I can always buy another hoody out there Hehehe any excuse to shop!

8 days for you. 10 for me. Can't wait to get away from this rain and cold!

Basically, it should be lovely

Be more afraid of the air con in restaurants

It will be boiling hot. I have only ever used a cardigan in Florida during the last week of January, didn’t need anything in February.

April is my usual time to go and I am not expecting to require any kind of cover up. I will take a light cardigan with me but that will be for the few minutes between UK airport and car.

Thanks for the replies! Great to hear!

We are from Scotland too, Gryff, so I am probably going to melt!
Last few times we've been there have been mid summer though and that was just way too hot. So I'm hoping THIs trip will be lovely and warm but not too unpleasant!

I’m hoping it will be nice and hot! We always went in the school summer holidays which was great (apart from the rain but it never lasted long). Since leaving teaching and starting my own tutoring business I can go when I want; we went in October/November and now March/April. To be honest Oct/Nov was a little cool for me so I’m hoping it will be a bit warmer.
