When is cyclone season and should I avoid it?

Check the Bureau’s tropical cyclone information for official guidance and current information. Season dates describe a risk period, not the forecast for an individual holiday.

Discuss your booking

Ask the operator whether the proposed trip runs on your dates and how disruption is handled. Allow for the possibility that weather affects the route or travel to the boarding point.

Confirm change and cancellation arrangements before booking, and ask your insurer about the cover relevant to your plans. No month guarantees suitable conditions.

Read weather and seasons and the booking checklist.
