I found these tips: 1. Pick it up: Big or small, the watermelon should feel heavy for its size. 2. Look for the yellow spot: Watermelons develop a splotch where they rest on the ground. When this splotch is creamy yellow, it's ripe. 3. Give it a thump: Tap the underbelly of the watermelon. A ripe one will have a deep hollow sound. Under-ripe or over-ripe melons will sound dull. 4. Pick a dull looking watermelon. A shiny appearance indicates an underripe melon. This applies to honeydew melons too. Do you have any other tips?

My wife and I have tried many varieties but in our opinion the best flavoured watermelon has seeds. Which do you prefer? (I couldn't resist adding this picture. I suppose it's one way to cool down.)
Seedless watermelon tastes best.
