Best Time to Visit

On the coast of New South Wales, summer lasts from December to February and can get very hot and busy. Spring (September through November) and autumn (March through May) are great for avoiding the crowds but still being able to enjoy warm days and outdoor activities like sunbathing or surfing at the beach. The former is also the season with a lower chance of rainfall. July is the coldest month, but winter in the Ballina Byron region is still quite mild, with an average minimum of about 12°C.
