An exterior protection apparatus for a vehicle includes an exterior airbag device, a collision detector, and a controller. The exterior airbag device includes a bag body, and an inflator configured to expand the bag body over a hood of a vehicle body of the vehicle in a state of having a width corresponding to a vehicle width of the vehicle body of the vehicle. The collision detector is configured to predict or detect a collision between the vehicle body and a person outside the vehicle. The controller is configured to cause the bag body of the exterior airbag device to be expanded in a case where the collision detector predicts or detects the collision. The exterior airbag device includes a flexible crossing member configured to extend along a direction of the vehicle width on an upper surface of the bag body widely expanded.
