When visiting Bali it is vital to take the weather conditions into consideration. Although the Bali Weather is thought to be sunny skies and cool breezes this is only half the story. The weather in Bali isn’t divided into four seasons but rather into 2. There’s the dry season and the wet season, with the temperature remaining pretty constant across the year. The averages temperature in Bali is 28C all year round and even in winter you may expect it to fall to only 24C.
The hottest time to visit Bali is during the dry season which lasts from Apr to September, with June to Sep being the top season. There is very little rain at all thru these months and you can expect to have 99% of the time you spend in Bali with bright blue skies. There is slight rainfall in this time, but it is generally in the afternoon, and although if can be a heavy downpour, only last a little while and then the sun comes out again.
The other, less popular season to go to Bali is in the wet season, typically from October to March, due to the very wet conditions. In this time of year you can expect terribly torrential rain for days if not for weeks at a time. It is this season that give Bali its dense tropical rainforests that it is known for. The high rain volume in the wet season gives the trees and plants plenty of moisture to grow at an incredible rate.
In the entire year you should expect to have a high humidity which is at its highest in the wet months and can reach as high as 90% which if you are not used to it can be extremely stifling. When coming to Bali and you aren’t used to living in a humid climate it is crucial that you book Bali Accommodation that has air-con in order for you to acclimatize. The humidity is felt more inland where the coast gives way to a higher altitude and some areas are so dense with vegetation that some folk can find it tough to breathe.
The winds that blow in Bali are light to moderate and you do not get the major monsoons and storms that are associated with many Indonesian countries. There are some amazing storms that are grand to experience, but except for landslides there isn’t any danger if you visit Bali in this time. Many folks still come to Bali during this time as you will find that the Bali accommodation is less crowded and you’ll be capable of finding much better rates.
With Bali being such a small island that is renowned for its marine life and amazing scuba diving areas it doesn’t really matter when you come to visit if you’re interested by diving. Even during the heavy rainy season you’re still guaranteed of some bright days, it is simply that when it rains it really rains and you’ll have to stay in the hotel during the heaviest of the rain or spend some time doing some Bali Shopping.
