Sailing Whitsundays - Weather &
Tides
|
|
| The
climate is subtropical being just above
the Tropic of Capricorn. The Whitsunday's
are on the same Latitude as the Fiji
Islands. They offer sunny tropical weather
virtually all year round. The water
temperature varies from 23°C in winter
to 28°C in summer and the islands are
protected from ocean swells by the Great
Barrier Reef. Summers are hot and balmy
with occasional showers, but even these
are warm and refreshing. The trade winds
are usually stronger between May and
August, however you can expect sailing
breezes almost every day. |
