April weather forecast
New Caledonia

April in New Caledonia further establishes the autumn season. The Tropical Monsoon climate's intensity recedes, leading to an even more noticeable decrease in both temperature and rainfall compared to March. Average temperatures range from 24°C (75.2°F) to 27°C (80.6°F), marking a gentle cooling from the hot summer months. Coastal cities, such as Nouméa and Bourail, experience similar temperature ranges, making the climate particularly pleasant during this period.

As the influence of the northwest monsoon winds diminishes, rainfall continues to decrease. April observes average precipitation levels from 70mm (2.76") to 100mm (3.94"), and the frequency of rain events also drops, making heavy showers less common. The afternoons and evenings may still see occasional rain showers, but they are typically lighter and less frequent than in the previous months.

When compared to March, April shows a further drop in temperature and rainfall, continuing the transition into the drier and cooler autumn season. Looking forward to May, this cooling and drying trend persists, signaling the onset of the milder and drier winter season in New Caledonia.

Despite the transitional climate, April offers excellent weather for outdoor exploration and activities. The drop in temperature and rainfall, coupled with less humid conditions, makes this an ideal time to explore the islands' natural beauty. The waters remain warm enough for swimming and other water sports, and the reduced likelihood of afternoon showers makes for more predictable planning of activities.
