When visiting Bali it is important to take the weather conditions under consideration. Even though the Bali Weather is thought to be sunny skies and cool breezes this is only half the tale. The weather in Bali isn’t divided into four seasons but rather into two. There’s the dry season and the wet season, with the temperature remaining pretty constant throughout the year. The averages temperature in Bali is 28C all year 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 April to September, with June to September being the top season. There is very little rain at all thru these months and you should 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 though if could be a heavy downpour, only last a short time and then the sun comes out again.
The other, less popular season to visit Bali is in the wet season, typically from October to March, because of the very wet conditions. During this time of the year you should expect awfully torrential rain for days if not for weeks at a time. It is this season that give Bali its dense tropical rain forests that it is renowned for. The high rain volume during the wet season gives the trees and plants lots of moisture to grow at an awesome rate.
During the full year you can expect to have a high humidity which is at its highest in the rainy months and can reach as high as ninety percent which if you are not used to it can be very stifling. When coming to Bali and you aren’t used to living in a humid climate it is critical that you book Bali Accommodation which 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 people can find it tricky 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 s. There are some amazing storms that are awesome to experience, but except for landslides there isn’t any danger if you visit Bali in this time. Many folk still come to Bali during this time as you will find that the Bali accommodation is less crowded and you will be capable of finding far better rates.
With Bali being such a little 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 curious about diving. Even during the heavy wet season you’re still assured of some sunny days, it is just that when it rains it really rains and you will have to remain in the hotel in the heaviest of the rain or spend some time doing some Bali Shopping.
