Hi can anyone tell me when (weather wise) its best to visit brisbane, going to go out to do a reckkie after christmas some time and am aware it rains a bit that time of year and i want to make sure i get my tan!!! hoping to go between jan and march, any advice?

Their summer is our winter, so it will be really hot

spent the whole of Dec there if you like the sun
then you will love it as i did.
Did rain but never stopped me getting a tan

January is the hottest time of year so in Brisbane, you will bake. March would be better... then it's just 'British' hot, and you may cope with that, just about.

I hope that whilst you're up there, you could pop into Surfers Paradise and check out the damage that people have done to their skin by 'getting their tan.' Skin like leather, numerous surgeries taking out cancerous moles, skin with no elastin left in it so knee skin and ankle skin is saggy! Be careful out there!

Hi hayleyhails,

We went this year Jan 16th - Feb 13th to the Gold Coast, it's only a hours drive from Brisbane (cos we went there via Tambourine Mountain) and the weather was beautiful, came back with a lovely tan.

Steve.

Thanks all

think i may go feb time and dont worry i always wear sunscreen and tan safely!!! No trips for mole removal for me!!!

thanks again
