This seasonal guide to waterfalls in Australia recommends the best time of year and the
best time of day to visit each waterfall using hydrologic knowledge to get the most out of your visit. At the current time, the guide to waterfalls in
Victoria is the most complete, followed by the Northern Territory, New South Wales and Queensland. This website only
includes waterfalls that I have personally visited and photographed.

Visit the tropics at the start of dry season (Apr and May) when road access resumes, and then head south to watch the breaking rains in winter bring waterfalls back to life in southern Australia.
This is my compilation of waterfalls in Victoria, including many within the Melbourne metropolitan area, as well as further afield, including the basalt column waterfalls that run through central
and western Victoria. This list was put together as part of my search for the perfect swimming hole in this State…
The list includes two fun waterfalls on the New South Wales South Coast that I have visited, as well as several waterfalls around Sydney including in the Blue Mountains,
and up along the NSW mid to north coast, and one waterfall near Canberra in the ACT…
Here are several truly spectacular tropical waterfalls in Litchfield National Park, which is
a short drive south of Darwin. You can swim at most of these largely spring fed waterfalls as well or simply enjoy the view, but only during the dry season…
Lush rainforest and chalky drops, here are waterfalls that I have visited in south east Queensland on both the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. The weather
is warm all year round, and along the Great Dividing Range, the rain is usually fairly reliable…
If you are planning a visit to Australia from overseas, be mindful of the variable climate. Waterfalls in the southern half of Australia will be flowing at their fiercest in winter/spring (roughly Jul-Nov), but this is also the coldest time of year in this region. Visiting in late spring will see good flow over the waterfalls but without the winter chill. Waterfalls in tropical northern Australia will be flowing at their most ferocious in the wet season (roughly Nov-Apr), but access to many waterfalls at this time is not possible due to flooding or waterlogging of roads. In the first few months of the dry season (i.e. the first half of the May-Oct period) waterfalls will still be flowing but you will also have road access. Late in the dry season, some waterfalls in the tropics dry up.
