Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in CL as well as at Perth, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.

How busy it gets

No month stands out as busy; quietest in April and May.

The year in Perth

Perth has a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. The data suggests that January to February is particularly appealing for beach activities, while the winter months (June to August) are cooler and wetter.

Busiest
early Dec to late Feb — Summer months with warm weather attract the most tourists.
Quieter, still good
early Mar to late May — Cooler temperatures and fewer tourists provide a better value.
early Sep to late Nov — Mild weather and lower rates before the summer peak.

Written by a language model from the climate figures above. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe.
