Also means
mild, peaceful
Usage Note
Apacible describes a calm, agreeable quality in people, climates, or environments — closer to English 'gentle' or 'placid' than merely 'calm'. It typically pairs with weather (clima apacible), temperament (carácter apacible), or landscapes (pueblo apacible). Unlike tranquilo, it carries a warmer, more positive connotation, suggesting pleasant mildness rather than simply the absence of disturbance.
Examples
"Era una tarde apacible en el campo."
Natural Translation
It was a gentle afternoon in the countryside.
