Mind the Seasons
Sometimes it is hard to imagine the dry, desert like continent of Australia as being susceptible to rain fall but it is. Like any other country, it has a rainy season but it is predominantly in the tropical north regions of Australia. If you plan to visit there, avoid scheduling your trip from November to April when the coastal regions of the north experience cyclones and generally wet, stormy weather. You can expect on average twelve days of rain each month during the wet season.
Summer lasts from December 1st to February and is the best time to vacation there. A bit of a warning from seasoned travelers to Australia regarding the tropical summer months. Pay close attention to beaches and signage. While swimming and surfing are popular vacation pastimes, the tropical summer months are also high season for jellyfish and while a sting won’t kill you, they do hurt a little. Take advantage of the great weather but watch for warnings.
