The climate of Albany (Australia)
Albany is the largest and oldest city on the south coats of Australia.
The city is located in a natural harbour: King George Sound. This used
to be an intermediate port. The city itself is not very special, its
surroundings on the other hand are. One of the main attractions is a
natural granite bridge and other stone structures all along the south
coast that are formed by nature. Off the coast a specially prepared
naval vessel the HMAS Swan has been sunk. Fish, coral and plants have
taken over the ship and made it their natural habitat. Because of the
location of the ship it’s easily accessible and thus a unique diving
experience. This is a very safe way of diving. Divers can even take a
look inside the ship.
Albany has a Mediterranean climate with dry summers and wet winters.
On average temperatures in summer are round 25 degrees Celsius. Unlike
most parts of Australia most rain will fall in winter. Summers are
relatively dry. Keep in mind that seasons are opposite of ours.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
