Annual Water Temperature Trend

Eimeo Beach sits on Queensland’s North Coast near Mackay, facing the Coral Sea, where water temperatures remain warm and inviting for most of the year. During summer, from around December to March, the sea typically ranges between 27 and 29 °C, giving the water a distinctly tropical feel. In winter, usually June to August, temperatures drop only slightly to about 22–24 °C, which is still comfortable for swimming, particularly on clear, sunny days. Spring and autumn often offer the best balance, with water temperatures commonly sitting around 24–26 °C and more settled coastal conditions.
