Bunbury has a mediterranean climate with warm to hot Summers and cool Winters. Rainfall is received in the form of cold-fronts during Winter but the weather is rather pleasant for the rest of the year. In Summer (December to February), the average maximum temperature is 28°C with an average minimum temperature of 14°C. In Winter (June to August), the average maximum temperature is 19°C with an average minimum temperature of 9°C.
The Dutch first sailed the waters off Bunbury in the 1600s and was further explored by the French in 1803. After favourable reports by Lieutenant Henry William St Pierre Bunbury, the first settlers arrived in 1838 and by 1841 there were almost 400 settlers. The region prospered initially as a result of whalers who anchored their vessels in Geographe and Koombana Bays and grew steadily throughout the 19th century.
Bunbury became a municipality in 1871, and railway lines in 1891 and 1893 increased the port's importance as a major exporter of Karri and Jarrah timber to England. In 1903 the breakwater for the modern port was constructed and for most of the 20th century to the present date has retained it's importance as a regional port. Bunbury became a city on October 8, 1979 and is now the second largest city in Western Australia.
