Best Time To Visit Melbourne
Plan your trip during best season to experience the best of this stunning destination
The best time to visit Melbourne is during the shoulder season during the months of March and May and September and November when temperature ranges between 11°C and 24°C. Melbourne sees the highest number of travelers during the shoulder season as the weather in these months is dry and cool. During these months, the climate in Melbourne is at its best form of the year. Given below is the month wise segregation of the weather in Melbourne.
March - May (14°C to 24°C):
As the temperature hovers around 14 degree to 24 degree celsius, Melbourne experiences the season of autumn or fall during the period of March to May. With tree leaves turning golden, there is a clearer sky after the hot and humid summer. Though, the chill of winter is yet to set in; thus offering a chance to cherish the perfect blend of two weathers in May.
During this time, there are many festivals and events in Melbourne as well. It hosts the Melbourne Food and Wine festival, the Australian Grand Prix, the Comedy Festival and the Fashion Festival as well.
June - August (8°C to 15°C):
From June to August, Melbourne gets dreary cold while the temperature hovers around 8°C-15°C. Unlike Sydney or Brisbane, the cold here is not pleasant. Instead, the precipitation level is comparatively higher making Melbourne experience the coldest weather in August.
However, the city itself is not as dreary during this time as the weather. While it is too cold to enjoy the water activities, one can take this opportunity to explore the town and find new places to dine and drink in.
September - November (11°C to 22°C):
September to November is once again a great time to visit Melbourne with temperature ranging between 11 degree and 22 degree celsius. The city enjoys springtime during these months. Flowers start blooming and there is a lush green view all around. But, despite the beautiful weather from September to November, there are fewer crowds.
One can roam around the marketplaces and enjoy city sightseeing destinations without elbowing through strings of people.
December - February (25°C to 30°C):
While the temperature in Melbourne stays around 25°C-30°C around December to February, it is the peak season of tourism here. Thus, the weather in Melbourne is hot and humid during this time. Though, it doesn't restrict visitors from enjoying a sojourn here. The hotels are packed, and the flight tickets are all booked more or less. So it would be better to book them well in advance in order to visit Melbourne this time.
