Perth’s Mediterranean-style climate means it experiences warm and sunny weather for most of the year. The summer months of December to February are warm and hot, with highs of around 31 degrees in the hottest months of January and February. The autumn months of March to May can feel like an extension to summer, with warm days, but cooler nights and the odd shower. Consequently mild winter months of June to August are rainy season, characterised by cooler sunny days with occasional downpours and thunderstorms. Spring (September to November) is a popular time to visit, as there’s little rain and days are warm and sunny.
