Experience Different Seasons in Australia

If you will ask me “what is like the climate in Australia?” “When is the best month to travel in Australia?” These are the questions that are always asked to me and to tell you frankly, it’s hard to answer because of the geographical structure of Australia compare to another country. Australia is huge in land mass, so it has many different types of temperature and choosing the best time to travel in Australia can be influenced by your interest and budget of course, for example, if you have an interest in diving, you can visit “Great Barrier of Reef” to see the Minke Whales, you should prefer June because these are the time that the whales migrate there.

 Commonly the northeastern part of Australia is the warmest; it makes sense because it is the closest to the equator. Kind of weird because even though it is the summer season in the Northeast, it is also the time when rainfalls are often to be experienced. So if you want to travel in Australia it is best to plan ahead when is the best time for you to travel in Australia and bring always an umbrella with you, if you are planning to go out.
