Are you looking for the best places to visit in April 2024? Whether you’re a seasoned digital nomad or just need a break from the usual grind, spring is the perfect time for globetrotting. You get temperate weather, fresh blooms, and fewer crowds. Here’s our round-up of seven of the best places to visit and how to make the most of your April adventure.
1) Petra
Put Petra at the top of your list of the best places to visit in April 2024. The weather is idyllic, with temperatures ranging from 64°F to 80°F and vibrant wildflowers and greenery peppering the desert landscape. Go hiking through the historic archaeological sites and ruins renowned for their reddish color. As one of Jordan’s top attractions, “Rose City” features rock-cut architecture and an innovative water management system. History buffs will love learning more about its ancient Eastern traditions and Hellenistic architecture. It’s home to around 800 tombs and a 2,000-year-old mausoleum and crypt known as “The Treasury.”
If you’re a digital nomad visiting Petra, you’ll find co-working spaces in Amman, which is 143 miles away. As the capital of Jrodan, you’ll have a wider variety of cafes and remote work spaces. Or you can stay at a hotel in nearby Wadi Musa, such as Mövenpick Resort Petra, to enjoy a rooftop bar, free WiFi, and pool access.
2) Arches National Park
Arches National Park’s shoulder season is April, with pleasant weather for time outdoors. Similar to Petra, you can expect a daytime average of 60 to 80°F, making it a comfortable time to hike. You’ll see snow-capped peaks at LaSal and dramatic landscapes across rock features. Arches National Park is known for its 2,000 documented natural stone arches and “The Arch,” a 52-foot-tall natural wonder. It’s the largest free-standing arch in the park, located at the top of a sandstone basin. Despite it being shoulder season, April is a popular time to visit and you should expect crowds.
If you’re a digital nomad, you won’t find public WiFi at Arches. There is a nearby Grand County Library and restaurants with WiFi available. You may be able to get limited cell phone coverage in the park, which is usually strongest when the La Sal Mountains are visible.
3) Amsterdam
The best places to visit in April 2024 should include a dazzling display of flowers. Head to Amsterdam for its mild temperatures and stunning blooms that cover the landscape with iconic tulips and other flowers. The city fills with beautiful tulip displays during the Tulip Festival in April. Make a stop at the Keukenhof Gardens to see seven million flowering blooms. The festival is also home to the Flower Parade, which spans 26 miles from Noordwijk to Haarlem and features a spectacle of floats adorned with fresh flowers.
Digital nomads visiting Amsterdam have their choice of coworking spaces. WeWork offers aft-filled areas and micro-brewed coffee for a pleasant (and productive) place to work. Or try Capital C for event spaces, meeting rooms, and four floors of coworking and office spaces with canal-side views.
4) Cayman Islands
If you like the beach without the intense heat, April marks the start of the dry season in the Cayman Islands. It’s also among the most popular times to visit. Expect to brush up against locals and crowds of tourists, clear skies, and cool breezes. Although you won’t get the hot beach weather, you can enjoy parasailing or visiting Stingray City. Or stop by the botanical park and blue iguana rescue site. Hikers head to Mastic Trail to see one of the several natural heritage sites managed by the National Trust that’s home to native plants, trees, and wildlife native to the island.
For remote work, try the Regus, also known as the White House in George Town. If you’re staying longer, book a private office or coworking space by the end of the month.
5) Oman
Oman is among the best places to live in April for its warm climate, with temperatures ranging from 25–32°C during the day. There’s also low rain, and the roses in the Jebel Akhdrar mountains are in full bloom and captivating the imaginations of hikers. Unlike its neighbors, Dubai and Riaydh, Oman’s capital, Muscat, has tall buildings in its port city and unobstructed views of the Hajar Mountains. Adventurers snork with whale sharks in the Damaniyat Islands to see sea turtles, ancient coral reefs, sharks, and migratory birds.
For coworking, spots like Al Rud’ha MQ support freelancers, remote workers, and startups looking for a quiet space to work. The Technopark in Muscat is also an option and comes with meeting rooms, open spaces, and workshop areas.
6) Turkish Coast
The Turkish Coast is warm but not blistering hot and highs reach around 69°F. You’ll see some rain in April, but the mild weather is ideal for seaside fun and al fresco dining. You’ll see blooms across the coast, which makes hot air ballooning a popular activity for travelers. You can also see the ancient ruins of Ephesus and Pergamon or sit in the sun along the pristine beaches of the Aegean and Mediterranean coasts.
Istanbul is a good bet for digital nomads looking for solid WiFi and a comfortable spot to work. JustWork has collaboration desks, private rooms, an adjoining shopping center with dining options, sleeping rooms, music studios, and more.
7) India
One of the best places to visit in April 2024 is India, for its lack of soaring heat and humidity. Rain is infrequent, making this an ideal season for sight-seeing, hiking, and exploration. Manali is a romantic destination, surrounded by hills and lush flora. In Munanar, expect to see green plantations and blue skies. The Andaman Islands offer soft, white-sand beaches and crystal-blue waters for a relaxing getaway.
You won’t have much trouble finding a coworking space in India, which is experiencing a rapidly expanding market for the demand of digital nomads. Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore offer plenty of options. But smaller areas, like Munanar, still offer WiFi in hotels, resorts, and cafes. Or try Center A, which offers a fully furnished office space.
