Ten-year averages for this calendar month. 16 rainy days, as the weather station at Manado Airport (10 km away) counts them: its April average over 10 years, 2017–2026 (WMO 97014). A rainy day is one with at least 1 mm of rain.

Weather read at the city, the boats to Bunaken, 11 km from the airport (MDC): ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.

How busy it gets

April: quieter than usual. Busiest in February, September and November; quietest in January, May and June.
