## Frequently asked questions

### What is the best area to stay in Merinda?

> This area is the heart of Merinda's visitor experience, stretching for several kilometres. It's characterised by its wide, palm-lined promenade, with hotels, restaurants, and shops on one side and the beach on the other. You'll find many pedestrian-friendly sections and easy access to the Merinda Pier, a popular spot for fishing and enjoying ocean views.
> 
>   
> Couples looking for a relaxing yet convenient holiday will find the Esplanade ideal. Many accommodations here boast ocean-facing balconies, superb for enjoying sunrises. The array of high-quality restaurants and bars within walking distance means you can easily enjoy romantic dinners without needing to travel far.
> 
>   
> Families will also appreciate staying along the Esplanade due to its proximity to the Merinda Lagoon, a large, man-made swimming facility with sandy shores and lifeguards, offering a safe swimming environment.

### When is the best time to go to Merinda?

> During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny days with comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 20°C to 28°C. The humidity is much lower than in the wet season, making it ideal for exploring the region's natural beauty, such as the nearby rainforests and beaches. This period is superb for travellers who want to maximise their outdoor activities without the worry of rain.
> 
>   
> For those looking to enjoy the Great Barrier Reef, the dry season offers excellent visibility for snorkelling and diving, as the waters are generally calmer and clearer. It's also when you're less likely to encounter marine stingers, although protective suits are often recommended year-round. This makes it a prime time for couples or families planning water-based excursions.
> 
>   
> The shoulder months of May and October can offer a good balance, with pleasant weather and slightly fewer crowds than the peak months of June, July, and August.
