The best period to visit this region is during the Summer and Spring months of September to April. Wilderness is a popular summer beach destination that can get busy during the Christmas period, as it boasts many outdoor activities. Wilderness experiences rain throughout the year, but the Winter months between June and August are certainly the coldest and wettest. However, there is still plenty to see and do during this time and there are always a few days of great weather no matter the season.
