Western Australia climate

Western Australia’s diverse climatic zones are broken up into three parts: north, central, and south. The North section holds a tropical, sunny environment with hot days and a long dry season. Things cool down a bit during chilly evenings between April and September, as well as the wet season lasting from October to March. As a general rule, rain and thunderstorms prevail in the north year round.If you’re planning on booking flights to Western Australia and staying in the central region, be prepared for scorching days: The semi-arid ecosystem is plainly desert land.In the southern division, Mediterranean summers are warm and dry, and winters are usually wet and mild. Especially in Perth, the hot summer weather is refreshingly cooled by sea breezes, and it’s easy to enjoy the lack of humidity in one of the region’s biggest cities.
