The Western Australian climate is the most diverse in the country, due to its large size, and it is divided into three main climatic zones: tropical, semi-arid and Mediterranean. The north is tropical, characterised by a sunny dry season (April to September) and a wet season (October to March) with its humidity, heavy rains and thunderstorms. The dry season has ideal temperatures, with hot days and mild evenings, and is perhaps the best time to travel to Western Australia. The central part of the state falls within the semi-arid zone and consists mostly of desert regions. A temperate, Mediterranean climate characterises the south where the summers are warm and dry and the winters mild and wet. Perth lies within this zone and the hot summer days are cooled by the strong afternoon sea breeze. Perth has a very low rate of humidity. Winters (June to August) are mild, with the wettest month being July.
