Today is certainly not a suitable day for a trip to Bilinga Beach, so it is best to stay indoors and make other plans. Expect persistent rain throughout the day, which will make any outdoor activities uncomfortable and unpleasant. The air temperature will reach 20.5 °C, but with the wet conditions and strong, blustery winds, it will feel quite chilly. The sea is currently very rough with high, choppy waves that are dangerous for anyone entering the water. Although the sea temperature is 23.8 °C, the combination of heavy rain and hazardous surf means the water is not safe for swimming. Please avoid the shoreline until conditions improve significantly, as the current environment is quite harsh and entirely unsuitable for a relaxing beach experience.
