Annual Water Temperature Trend

Brooms Head, or The Broom as the locals like to call it, is a deadset classic coastal getaway that’s managed to keep that old-school holiday feel. If you’re keen on a dip, the water here is as good as it gets on the North Coast. During the heat of summer, usually around February, you’re looking at a balmy 25°C to 27°C—pretty much like jumping into a warm bath. When winter rolls around in August, the mercury dips to a fresher but still manageable 19°C to 21°C. While it might feel a bit bracing for a casual splash, the sun usually has enough bite in it to keep you comfortable, and plenty of people stay in year-round with just a light spring suit to take the edge off.
