Annual Water Temperature Trend

Yanchep sits on the northern edge of Perth’s City Coast, where reefs and lagoons break up the Indian Ocean and give the area a slightly more sheltered feel than many metro beaches. Water temperatures here follow the typical Perth pattern. In summer, from December to February, the sea usually sits around 21–24°C, feeling warm and comfortable on hot days. Autumn remains pleasant at about 19–22°C, while winter cools to roughly 16–18°C, which is brisk but still suitable for short swims. Spring brings a gradual warm-up again, generally ranging between 18–21°C as air temperatures rise.
