| The climate is subtropical
being just above the Tropic of Capricorn.
The Whitsunday's are on the same Latitude
as the Fiji Islands. They offer sunny tropical
weather virtually all year round. The water
temperature varies from 23°C in winter to
28°C in summer and the islands are protected
from ocean swells by the Great Barrier Reef.
Summers are hot and balmy with occasional
showers, but even these are warm and refreshing.
The trade winds are usually stronger between
May and August, however you can expect sailing
breezes almost every day. |
