What to pack

What April feels like

April brings the rolling chairs and the bike hours back to the boards, and the beach is genuinely lovely to walk. The water is nowhere near ready and nobody pretends otherwise; frost still catches the mainland gardens some nights.

Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. The air runs dry — whatever the thermometer says, it wears easy.

Can you swim?

The ocean runs about 51° — frigid — locals in wetsuits only.
