Check the live forecast above before you plan your day around Ramsgate – conditions can shift quickly along this stretch of the Botany Bay coast, especially when a sea breeze kicks in during the afternoon.

What makes Ramsgate weather different?

Ramsgate sits on the southern shore of Botany Bay, about 16 kilometres south of the Sydney CBD. Its coastal position means summer temperatures are often a degree or two cooler than inland suburbs like Penrith or Hurstville, thanks to the afternoon sea breeze. Winter is milder too, with overnight lows rarely dipping below 8°C. The area receives moderate rainfall year-round, with the heaviest falls typically in autumn and early winter.

How does the bay affect the forecast?

Botany Bay creates a local microclimate. North-easterly winds push moist air over the suburb, often producing low cloud or drizzle in the morning that clears by midday. If you’re checking the Australia weather hub for Ramsgate, pay attention to the wind direction – a southerly change can drop the temperature by 5°C in minutes, especially from November to March.

Is there a Ramsgate weather radar?
