Anglesea Beach: Weather Today

📅 Saturday, September 12, 2026
Today is an average day at Anglesea Beach, best suited for a coastal stroll rather than a traditional day by the water. With the maximum air temperature reaching 20.4 °C, it remains quite cool, and the current sea temperature of 14.0 °C is far too cold for comfortable swimming. You will experience a mix of sunshine and clouds throughout the day, while the breeze remains noticeable, creating somewhat choppy conditions with moderate waves hitting the shore. While the weather is dry, the combination of brisk temperatures and wave activity means it is not an ideal time for sunbathing or heading into the water. If you do visit, bring a warm layer to stay comfortable against the wind while enjoying the fresh coastal air.
