Sam Heughan has shared his astonishment at being met with sunny weather in Australia.
The Scottish actor, who is Down Under for the the Supanova Comic Con & Gaming expo, filmed an Instagram Reel on Thursday as he strolled along Sydney’s famous Bondi Beach.
The 45-year-old noted the clear skies and lack of snow or ice, with Sydney’s winter weather reaching a mild peak of 16 degrees Celsius the day the video was filmed.
‘Winter. Winter in Australia,’ Sam marvelled as he strolled along the boardwalk beside the ocean.
‘In Scotland, we have snow in winter. It’s dark. Ice. The only ice here is apparently an iceberg, but it’s a swimming pool’ he added, referring to the Bondi Icebergs pool.

‘Trying to do up my shirt because it’s that cold,’ he joked, gesturing at the sun.
Sam may have gotten more of what he expected later in the night, when temperatures dropped to seven degrees Celsius once the sun went down.
Last year, Sam signed up to the celebrity dating app Raya in a bid to find love, MailOnline revealed.
Despite being known for his role as the dashing Highland warrior Jamie Fraser in Outlander, the actor is yet to find his dream partner.
Sam, who was last seen enjoying a romance with Australian model Monika Clarke in 2022, decorated his Raya profile with a slew of hunky snaps, and lists his main location as the UK.
MailOnline contacted a representative for Sam Heughan for comment.
Raya is a private membership community that started out as a dating app, but has since become a platform for networking and social discovery.
It was launched in 2015, and can be used on iPhones and iPads for $9.99 a month.

A select few are chosen to be part of the ‘elite community’, with the waiting list to join the app said to be in the ‘thousands’ and ‘not even 10 per cent of those who apply get in’.
Other names thought to have signed up include F1 star Lewis Hamilton, actor James Norton and footballer Jude Bellingham.
Sam was previously spotted kissing model Monika two years ago, and he was also romantically linked to Twin Peaks actress Amy Shiels in 2018.
Before that he was romantically linked to Into The Woods actress MacKenzie Mauzy in 2017 before they split quietly the next year, and also previously dated Cody Kennedy and Abbie Salt as well.
In May 2023, Sam shared rare insight into his love life by admitting he’s still looking for ‘The One.’
He told People: ‘I’ve done all of the gift-giving and turning up when least expected, but, so far, I’m still looking.’
He has starred on Starz series Outlander throughout its run, with the second half of its seventh season set to premiere in November 2024.
Outlander is a historical drama television series based on the ongoing novel series of the same name by Diana Gabaldon.

It is centered around an English combat nurse named Claire Randall (Catriona Balfe) from 1945 who is mysteriously swept back in time to 1743.
Sam also starred opposite Poldark’s Eleanor Tomlinson in the steamy Channel 4 drama The Couple Next Door.
The series saw Evie and her husband Pete (Alfred Enoch) moving into an upscale neighbourhood, where they met next door neighbours cop Danny (Sam) and his wife, glamorous yoga instructor Becka (Jessica De Gouw).
As time goes on, these two couples get increasingly close to each other and one fateful night, become sexually entangled in a way that will change their lives forever.
During filming, Eleanor and Sam worked with intimacy coordinator Vanessa Coffey.
Prior to filming, the pair also knew each other through their mutual friend Caitríona Balfe, who plays Jamie’s wife, Claire, in Outlander.
Eleanor previously told The Radio Times: ‘Sam is now one of my best friends. Every day was a joy and creating Danny and Evie’s complicated and dangerous relationship was a lot of fun.
‘It’s a real treat to work alongside such a supportive co-star but to leave a job with a best friend is pretty rare.’
