Perth's Mediterranean climate results in hot, dry summers lasting December to March with an average high temperature of 29°C. A sea breeze from the southwest, known locally as the "Fremantle Doctor," cools the city down by up to 15°C during the summer heat. Winter, which lasts June to August, sees daytime temperatures averaging 18°C.

Rainfall in Perth is moderate and occurs mostly during the winter, although sporadic, short-lived thunderstorms occur during the summer months; occasional tropical cyclones may bring some significant rainfall as well. The best times to visit Perth are between March and May or between September and November, periods that afford pleasant temperatures and minimal precipitation.
