The Best Time to Visit Bali

Bali is an excellent destination to introduce your family to Southeast Asian culture and Hinduism. Luckily for people from the Northern Hemisphere, the best time to visit Bali is from June to September, when most kids are on summer vacation.

However, there are benefits to traveling to Indonesia during other times of the year. Read on to learn what to expect weather-wise from your Bali trip.

Best Time to Visit Bali 

Bali by Season

Bali has two distinct seasons—the dry and wet (monsoon) periods. Both seasons come with their advantages and downsides.

Bali’s dry season runs from April to September. You can expect abundant sunshine and high temperatures in the upper 70s to low 80s, though the average highs don’t fluctuate much throughout the year.

Dry Season

The monsoon season occurs in Bali from October to March. During these months, it’s more humid, and mosquitos become abundant.

Monsoon Season

Although you’ll usually encounter fewer crowds in Bali from October to March, this isn’t a hard-and-fast rule. For example, massive amounts of tourists start arriving on the Island of Gods in mid-December, with the crowds remaining through the new year.

Picking a Month With Few Crowd

Although April to September falls during the dry season, Bali receives many international tourists from May to August, corresponding to when kids are off from school.
