Weather

It stays hot year-round here, but swings between a heavy monsoon centered on January and a markedly drier stretch around August. In August, expect highs around 30°C with rain on roughly 3 days of the month.

Things to Do

Ubud's rice terraces and temples anchor the cultural side of the island, while Seminyak and Canggu draw the beach-and-surf crowd. Uluwatu's clifftop temple and Kecak fire dance at sunset is a classic evening out, and a day trip to Nusa Penida's dramatic coastline is worth the boat crossing. The Bukit Peninsula in the island's drier south is generally sunnier than central Bali even within the same season.

Local Cuisine

Try babi guling (Balinese roast suckling pig) and nasi campur, alongside the strong Balinese coffee grown in the island's highlands.
