Annual Water Temperature Trend

Minnie Water is a proper hidden gem tucked away in the Yuraygir National Park, where the pace is slow and the Coral Sea is the main attraction. If you’re planning on getting amongst the salt water, the temperatures here are a total treat for most of the year. During the peak of summer, usually around February, the water temperature hits a balmy 25°C to 27°C, which is absolute gold for a long soak or a bit of snorkeling. Even when winter sets in during August, the mercury only dips to a fresher 20°C or 21°C. While it might have a bit of a bite for a casual dip, it’s still fairly mild, and you’ll see plenty of locals out there with just a bit of rubber or a thick skin if the sun is out.
