    I'm hoping to travel Australia for a few weeks next year - mainly just to visit a family member - just for 3 or 4 weeks.
    What's the best time to go weather wise? I'm not fond of very hot weather....

    Yeah it really depends on where in Aus you are going.

    Most places up north (from brisbane) are pretty warm all year round

    Melbourne/Adelaide are quite cold in winter, you don't want to come anywhere near in February. Autumn is really nice though, April, May.

    Sydney is generally 2 or 3 degrees hotter than Melbourne in winter, also gets hot in summer

    Cheers - I hope to spend 2 weeks near Broome and then 2 weeks travelling to and from Broome from Melbourne and Sydney.
    I'd love to go in April but realistically, I'd be much better of (for spends) if I wait 'til September/October time to go.

    I would say March/April/May. This is the autumn season in Sydney and Melbourne, not too hot and not too cool. Also for Broome, the wet season ends around this time and dry season begins so the climate is at its least humid during this period.
