When to go to Fraser Island
Fraser Island is one place where fun, excitement and excellent weather are included in a
visit here. Whether you are planning to go snorkelling, whale watch, explore the rainforests
or simply lay beachside in the sand, you need to figure out the most ideal time for you to
head over to this beautiful island.

Because Fraser Island is located only 500 kilometres away from the Tropic of Capricorn, the
climate consists of warm temperatures throughout the entire year. However, the average
temperatures do vary depending on the season.

Winter: The winter months are from May to August, when temperatures tend to range
from 14-25 degrees Celsius (57-77 degrees F). These are the drier months of the year and it
is less likely that you will see much rainfall if you decide to visit during this season.

Summer: September through until about April the temperatures increase to around 25-30
degrees Celsius (73-86 degrees F). The most rainfall occurs between the months of January
and March. It is important to be aware that because it is a subtropical climate on Fraser
Island, occasional storms (sometimes severe) are always a possibility so be sure to stay up
to date on current weather before heading to the island.

When to go to Fraser Island based on Activities

Fraser Island has a plethora of activities ready and available to all who come to visit.
Depending on what you prefer to do on your holiday and the activities you are hoping to
take part in, be sure to plan accordingly based on the best times throughout the year to go.

Fishing: Between July and October is the absolute best time to head out to sea with the
best chances great catch. The waters of Fraser Island are teeming with a variety of fish
making this activity one of the top ones on the island for visitors to enjoy. Fishing tours are
available to take you out where they have found July and August to be the prime fishing
season based on what fish are found in the waters at that time.

Whale Watching: There is a short window of time for whale watching and it occurs
between the months of July through beginning of November. You can book a cruise and
head out to see the gentle giants of the sea up close and personal. If you’re lucky enough to
be there at the right time, certain tours can take you out to witness the countless
Humpback whales migrating towards the south.

Bird Watching: If you have already spent some time in the waters and are looking for an
activity on land, try bird watching from either August-March or September-April. The
eastern curlew, the largest migratory wader can be seen from August-March where you
can witness beautiful birds taking flight off to their next destination. You can even sign up
for a guided bird watching walk if you want to learn more about the birds you are seeing.
