Here are a few tips to enjoy winter in the city of Brisbane.

The winters in Brisbane consist of mildly sunny days with a little likelihood of rain and chilly breezes throughout the day, making it a great place to visit for a quick escape from the daily grind. Located only a half an hour away from the city centre lies Brisbane’s most prized possession, Moreton Bay, which is a collection of islands and other natural water bodies. Moreton Bay island is one of the most visited tourist destinations here with numerous things to do and see and the ideal way to get around here is to hop on a cruise. Aria Cruises are one of the prime operators who provide top-quality vessels where you can indulge in numerous water-based activities, followed by a delicious lunch. Experience the unique water views of the area along with its native marine life as you immerse yourself in various water games. The Moreton Bay cruises are only a part of what the island offers; there are numerous other ways to enjoy this magical land including sandboarding, snorkelling, fishing and much more.

Looking for thrills? Feel the excitement of abseiling down the 20 metre drop at Kangaroo Point Cliffs, an unmissable outdoor adventure for winter. Overlooking the Central Business District, at the riverside of the famous Brisbane River, lies some sheer rock walls where adventurers flock to rock climb and abseil. Marvel at the uninterrupted views of the city skyline and watch the ferries and kayakers skim along the river as you take deep breaths before the 20 metre jump. Then you can relax and follow the instructors as they guide you over the edge, a perfect way to combine thrills with incredible views of the surrounding landscape.

A great advantage of winters in Brisbane is that the average temperature stays near 23 degrees, meaning the outdoor lifestyle continues to be the same all year. Rooftop Bars are a great way to soak in the weather and a perfect place to hangout with your best buddies. Maya, located 11 stories above on the Eleven Rooftop Bar is where the local-product influenced menu channels a patch of Mexico, along with a top-quality cocktail menu. Located in Fortitude Valley, you can enjoy 180° views of the CBD with a drink of choice in your hand and watch the sun slowly fade away into the horizon.
