We've had a really rubbish start to the year and I'm hankering after a trip abroad for a bit of warmth and sun during the easter school holidays with my hubby and 8 yr old son.
I've never been away In April so don't know what to expect.
The best bet seems to be the canary islands (which we have visitied in january before and it was lovely) but the prices seem be really high whereas the greek islands are a lot more affordable. Has anyone experienced the greek islands in April and would you recommend it?....TIA

not in April but the weather is generally still unsettled well into May so I wouldn't be too hopeful. Probably warm but not necessarily sunny. It partly depends which Greek island; the ones closer to the mainland aren't the same as the ones out to sea like Crete. That may be the reason prices are low.

It's usually better than here but its often raining so not really a sunny destination in spring, most european holiday places are better in the autumn than spring. Some of the hotels in Crete dont even open until May. Egypt is nice then, went to Sharm in April and it was very hot. Think you have to re-think and do some research on climate web-sites.
I've been a few times in mid May and been blessed with great weather, but am told that April sees a lot of rain. I go to Zante every year, and the season doesn't begin until early May, so you may find a lot of tourist attractions/restaurants etc not open for trade so early in the year.
Try Morocco. It's closer.
Warm, not expensive unless you want it to be, huge choice of resorts and hotels, short flights, hardly any time-change. It's not "dry", even though it is Muslim. It is very laid-back. Great night-clubs and cabarets, too.
Oh, and by the way, Morocco is outside the EU. so you can get duty-frees.
And thiose Moroccan Tagines ! Mouthwatering !
