Annual Water Temperature Trend

Suffolk Park is a cracker of a spot just south of Byron Bay where the pace is steady and the Coral Sea is always inviting. If you’re thinking about getting your hair wet, you’ll find the water temperatures are some of the best in New South Wales. During the peak of summer, usually around February, the ocean hits a balmy 25°C to 27°C—pretty much like diving into a warm bath. Even when winter sets in during August, the mercury only dips to about 19°C or 21°C. While that might feel a bit fresh for a casual dip without a wetsuit, it’s still fairly mild compared to the southern states, and plenty of locals stay in year-round with just a bit of rubber or a thick skin.
