All about New South Wales

When to visit

The best time to visit New South Wales for most activities is in Aussie summer, from November to February, when warm weather makes surfing, hiking, camping, cycling, wine tasting, and other outdoor exploring the most comfortable. If you’re into winter sports, then June through August is your best bet for skiing in the Snowy Mountains. There are fewer tourists in the winter, too.

Getting around

New South Wales has a well-connected train system that can get you to most places in the state. To explore the state’s scenic roads, like in Kangaroo Valley or along the coast, renting a car or van is your best option. In Sydney and other big cities, you can rent Lime bikes to weave through traffic for a local feel. Buses work well in most cities, like Sydney, which also has a popular, elaborate intercity metro network.

Traveler tips

Make it a point to visit some of the ocean rock pools in New South Wales. These beauties are crafted into the sea, making safer, calmer enclosures for toddlers, families, and hard-core swimming trainees. When the ocean becomes dramatic, the walls of the rockpools can’t keep out the swell, and you’ll see brave local kids daring the waves to knock them over, too.
