Warm at Easter?

Where is warm at Easter - I mean 25 degrees -ish would be great! Ideally would be warm enough for children to swim in an outdoor pool without going blue immediately kind of warm.

I was wondering about Greece and Turkey but not sure if it would be too cold? I once went to Portugal in April and it was rainy and chilly!

You'd need to go further than Europe for 25' at that time of year! Morocco, Egypt, Dubai, Thailand, Florida.

Thanks @happypet that’s what I thought might be the case. Just worried about how long haul will be with the COVID situation!

Have been to Florida for Easter before and loved it but I don’t know if the US will even let British citizens in! Not keen on the Middle East for various other reasons. Will keep looking!

We were baked to a crisp in Malta at Easter one year. But it was also very windy most of the time.

We’ve been to Turkey at Easter. It was pleasant but not warm every day, and one day we did sneak DD into the sauna because the indoor pool was still really chilly and she had blue lips! It was a lovely holiday but for guaranteed warmth I think it wouldn’t suit.

Portugal is mostly lovely at Easter but can also be a bit wet and nippy, esp early or late. If you go for a villa holiday you can look for one with heated pool though? You pay extra but can be worth it. Or bring wetsuits - we did this to Greece late October and worked really well.

How about The Canaries? Look on accuweather to see what the temperature was like at Easter last year. Wherever you go a heated pool is a must.

Malta is lovely at easter. It was about 24degrees when we were there four years ago, although it could be windy at times.The canary islands and Paphos in Cyprus are also good bets.

Thank you! I hadn’t thought about Cyprus.

I have been to Tenerife and didn’t love it but perhaps I should give it another go! I guess if the resort is nice and it’s sunny it doesn’t matter that much…?
