April keeps strong beach weather, but Easter prices and early sargassum risk start changing the tradeoff.

April is still a strong Cancún month, but it becomes more complicated. Weather remains good, Easter can be expensive, and sargassum starts to matter more as the month moves toward May. It works best if you want dry-season warmth and can book around holiday pressure.
