February holds up well in Sunshine Coast — 8th best month

With 25°C (78°F) on average, February delivers classic beach weather: plenty of time in the water, with beach and boat plans rarely disrupted by cold.

This is the year's wettest stretch at 216 mm, but with about 26 days with 6+ hours of sunshine it is not a total loss; an indoor fallback covers the risk.
