seasons & weather

Tasmania’s East Coast has a temperate maritime climate, with mild average temperatures and four distinct seasons. Tasmania’s average maximum summer temperatures range between 17 and 23°C (62-73° Fahrenheit) with winter temperatures of between three and 11°Celsius (37- 51° Fahrenheit).

The weather on Tasmania’s east coast is often milder and more settled than other parts of the island, thanks to the moderating influence of the ocean. Here, you’ll enjoy long summer days, crisp, clear winters, mild autumn weather and the vibrant freshness of spring.

Weather conditions in Tasmania can chance quickly, so make sure you’re well equipped with adequate clothing, sun and rain protection, and check local weather reports before you travel.

spring on the east coast

As the days grow longer on their journey towards summer, the east coast landscape starts to come alive. Flowers are bursting from roadsides and new growth gleams on hillside vineyards and fields. The sun sparkles off the sea, east coast towns are humming with the energy of the new season, and the gentle curves of the road are uncrowded.

You will love the cool temperatures that reign supreme during these periods.

winter on the east coast

There’s something about reaching the winter solstice that can spark a yearning for a little mid-year holiday. Perhaps it’s the lengthening days, or the realisation of just how many months still stand between us and Christmas that can inspire dreams of escaping on a winter getaway.
