April is still during our windy season. Much of the wind comes with cold fronts during this time of year. Despite this there can be lulls and an absence of wind so be prepared for non-wind activities. This may be a consideration in where you choose to go. If you have good frontal winds most of the Florida can have nice riding conditions. That is a LOT of coastline and potential launches.
Flat to choppy describes the Florida Keys and parts of the West Coast of Florida. There are large areas of the Intracoastal Waterway in parts of the central east coast that have less waves as well. You may have better wind on the east coast, maybe, but you may also have waves. The waves are a big draw for some of us.
Have a good trip!
