A Summer Down Under - 2 Weeks in Sydney, Melbourne and Gold Coast

May in Australia isn’t summer actually but it is summer in the Indian Subcontinent and most of South East Asia where I am based. In tropical Australia, the dry season from May to October has clear blue skies and sunny days. The temperatures are cooler. In May, the average daytime temperatures in Sydney are generally around 16°C and hardly fall below the average minimum temperatures of 12°C. The peak temperature of the month can reach a pleasant 20°C. Sydney in May is generally sunny and perfect for hitting the beach.
