Autumn (March-May): Perfect weather, 15-20°C, comfortable for walking. Fewer tourists than summer. Trees showcase golden and red foliage.
Spring (September-November): Mild temperatures 10-20°C, flowering gardens, and pleasant days. The city awakens after winter with vibrant outdoor culture.
Summer (December-February): Warm and sunny 25-30°C, but can be hot over 35°C. Busy with tourists. Beach season and outdoor events peak. Book accommodations early.
Winter (June-August): Cool and sometimes rainy, 7-15°C. Perfect for indoor attractions (museums, galleries, shopping). Fewer tourists mean shorter queues and lower prices.
Special Events: Australian Open (January), Melbourne Cup (First Tuesday November), Australian Grand Prix (March). Plan visits around these if interested, or avoid crowds.
