When is the best time to visit Surfside Cudmirrah Beach for the perfect beach holiday?
Cudmirrah Beach is beautiful all year round, it all depends what your idea of the perfect beach holiday is! If you would like to swim during your stay, the best time of year to visit is between November and April with the hottest months being December-February. The Spring months of September and October are usually lovely and sunny. Even if the water is a little brisk, there are lots of sunny nooks on the beach to escape to and recharge after the cold of winter. In May, the air temperature starts cooling down of an evening but the days can still be warm and often warm water currents still remain. June – August is our winter and is great for long invigorating walks on the beach and getting cosy in one of our cabins afterwards!
