Dry season, crowds, prices and surf — a month-by-month guide to the best time to visit Bali from One World Travels & Tours, then we tailor your trip.
Bali’s dry season, April to October, is the best time — sunny days, lower humidity and ideal beach and island-hopping conditions. May, June and September are the sweet spot: great weather without the July–August and Christmas peak crowds. The wet season (November to March) still has plenty of sunshine between tropical downpours, plus lower prices and lush green rice terraces.
Warm and lush with tropical showers; lower prices and quiet beaches.
One of the quietest months — green, humid and great value between the rain.
