St Georges Basin is seeing a mild, partly cloudy autumn day, with a light north-easterly breeze. The live forecast above gives you the exact temperature and wind for the next few hours, handy whether you’re planning a sail or a walk along the shore.

What makes St Georges Basin’s weather unique?

Nestled between Nowra and Vincentia on the NSW South Coast, the Basin is sheltered from the open ocean, so sea breezes arrive a little later than at the beach. Autumn brings warm days and cool nights, with average highs around 22°C. The surrounding hills can trap afternoon clouds, though rainfall is generally light this month – check the St Georges Basin weather radar for real-time showers moving in from the east.

Should you plan outdoor activities around tide and wind?

Yes. The Basin is a popular spot for kayaking and fishing, and the wind picks up most afternoons in spring, less so in autumn. For the latest conditions, compare the live forecast above with the tide times – a calm morning often gives way to a 10–15 knot sea breeze by midday. If you’re heading to Vincentia, our Sydney Weather page offers a broader view of coastal patterns, and any thunderstorm risk appears in Severe Weather Warning updates.
