December to February is the high season when the sun is shining and the beaches are dazzling (except in the Northern Region) but it’s also high demand and more expensive. The shoulder seasons of Spring (September-November) and Autumn (March-May) are among the best times for the entire country and more affordable than in summer. June to August is the low season except for Cairns and Great Barrier Reef where it is peak season with abundant sunshine and moderate temperatures.
