Best time to visit Rockhampton
Due to its location within the Queensland state, Rockhampton experiences a dry, tropical climate, meaning that there is no peak tourist season here. While that means you can get cheaper hotel rates and more availability any time of the year, consider visiting between the months of April and October (mid-autumn – mid-spring). This is the time when rainfall is at its lowest as the summer season, December – February, brings the highest volume of rainfall. The temperatures will average pleasantly in the low to high 20s.

The Centres for Disease Control recommend that travellers get all the routine vaccinations before entering Australia at least four to six weeks before departing. Check with your doctor for more information. Other diseases to be wary of include hepatitis A, hepatitis B, Japanese encephalitis, and rabies.
Rockhampton enjoys a low crime rate. It makes sense, however, to practise common sense, by keeping your valuables secure and out of sight and refraining from walking outside alone at night. Beware also of salt-water crocodiles, which have a habitat in the far south of Queensland. The crocodiles are generally present in the Fitzroy River.
