What To Do When (Winter)

A most comfortable time to explore the red centre and the tropics in the north. Gentle humidity, clear days, and warm waters prevail. A time when the northern most parts of the country come alive as the floodplains recede and the wilderness becomes easily accessible. In the south days can be crackly clear and evenings crisp or cold.
