Port Moresby - Post Report Question and Answers
What is the overall climate: is it extremely hot or cold, wet or dry, at any time of year, for example?
Port Moresby is tropical, with two basic seasons: dry and hot and wet and hot. The “dry” season is associated with the southern hemisphere winter: windy and slightly less humid from about June-November. Temperatures are occasionally pleasant, especially in the mornings and evenings. The “wet” season is hotter and rainier from December-May. The rain seems to bring little relief to the heat and humidity which does not seem to dissipate even at night. The highlands region of Papua New Guinea is cooler year-round due to the high elevation. - Aug 2025
