Annual Water Temperature Trend

Huskisson sits on the shores of Jervis Bay on the South Coast of New South Wales, connected to the Tasman Sea but enjoying more stable conditions than many open beaches. Water temperatures here follow a gentle seasonal pattern. In summer, the sea usually warms to around 21–24 °C, making it comfortable for swimming, snorkelling, and spending long stretches in the water. Autumn often remains mild, with temperatures commonly between 19–22 °C, while spring is cooler at roughly 17–20 °C as the water slowly warms after winter. During winter, temperatures typically drop to about 16–18 °C, which can feel cool but is still suitable for short swims, especially on calm, sunny days.
