Annual Water Temperature Trend

Wooli sits on the far north coast of New South Wales, where the Wooli Wooli River meets the Coral Sea, creating a mix of ocean and sheltered water environments. Water temperatures here reflect the region’s warm subtropical climate and are generally comfortable for swimming for much of the year. In summer, both the river and nearby ocean typically reach around 24–27 °C, making conditions ideal for relaxed swimming. Autumn often remains mild, with temperatures commonly between 22–25 °C as the weather settles. Spring begins cooler at roughly 20–23 °C before steadily warming toward summer. Winter is the coolest period, but even then water temperatures usually sit around 18–21 °C, which many locals still find suitable for a swim on sunny days.
