The Fleurieu enjoys an idyllic Mediterranean-style climate and because it is bounded on both sides by the coast this region enjoys wonderful sea breezes. Half of the area's rainfall occurs during the four winter months April - July but the temperatures remain mild during this time, rarely lower than 15 degrees celsius.
Summer temperatures can occasionally reach 40 + degrees celsius but the hot season is tempered by magnificent cool mornings and balmy evenings .
With such a reliably temperate climate, the beach, swimming and virtually all of the outdoor pursuits are available year round.
