When to visit

The best time to visit Exmouth is during the dry season, which runs from April to October. During this time, the weather is warm and sunny, perfect for outdoor activities. The peak tourist season is from June to August when the weather is mild and the marine life is abundant. However, visitors should be aware that accommodation prices may be higher during this time. The wet season, from November to March, can bring heavy rainfall and cyclones, so it is best to avoid visiting during this time.

There are also local tour operators that offer guided tours to popular attractions such as the Ningaloo Reef and Yardie Creek.
