Visiting a county so big — complete with three separate time zones and eight different climate zones — requires a degree of planning. While city breaks, road trips, and winery visits can be enjoyed year-round, varying regional weather patterns mean highlights like hiking around the iconic monolith of Uluru and snorkeling alongside the Getty Images Best Time to Visit Australia for Ideal Weather Every month presents an opportunity to experience a particular region of Australia at its best. If beach hopping is high on your agenda, aim for the warmer months of September to April in New South Wales and southeast Queensland, and November to March in southern states, including southern While southern states tend to experience four seasons, northern Australia (encompassing the top sections of Western Australia, the Northern Territory, and Queensland) has just two: wet (October to May) and dry (June to September). With road access often compromised during the wet season, the dry period is generally the best time to visit the region, especially on a road trip. The wet period also corresponds with cyclone and marine stinger seasons, however the Great Barrier Reef and rain forest tourism in the Cairns region operate year-round, weather permitting. You can still swim during stinger season, with Lycra stinger suits supplied by marine activity operators. Getty Images Australia's national parks and wilderness areas are laced with hundreds of spectacular hiking trails, many of which are be...

Given the size of the country, the climate in Australia varies greatly from one region to the next. Generally speaking, there are four seasons across most of the country while the Top End (including It’s also important to remember that Australia's seasons are at opposite times to those in the Northern Hemisphere.

Australia has matched its hottest ever reliably recorded temperature, with Onslow airport near the remote West Australian town of Onslow registering 50.7C (123.3F) Prior to Thursday, the 50C-mark had only been crossed three times at a standardised monitoring site including consecutive days in early 1960. Onslow’s top was reached just before 2.30pm local time. Read more On Thursday, Onslow was joined by at least two other WA sites in breaking 50C, with both Roebourne airport and Mardie hitting 50.5C. Mardie had been there once before, on 19 February 1998 – Australia’s only other 50C-plus day among the four. The extreme temperatures came towards the end of Stonkingly hot winds from Australia’s red centre had been building, in part as a result of the movement across northern Australia of tropical cyclone Tiffany. Now an ex-tropical cyclone, Tiffany dumped huge amounts of rain over northern Queensland and the Northern Territory, and could end up steering heavy rainfall into central and eastern Australia in coming days. The scenario (currently favoured by most models) where ex-Tropical Cyclone Tiffany recurves over the Kimberley later this week results in vast quantities of atmospheric moisture building over central and eastern Australia. Worth watching. A slew of other WA towns were likely to have set temperature records for January or any time of the year. Iron-ore export hub Karratha, also on WA’s north-west coast, reached 48.4C (119.1F) to exceed its previous high of 48.2C....
