What is the best season to fly to Bali?
The temperature is around 26 degrees Celsius (80 degrees Fahrenheit) all year round in Bali. The best time to come to Bali is during the dry season which normally starts in April and ends in October. The heart of the rainy season is in January February but it can start in November and last until March. However, it is rare that it rains all day and the rainy season can be a more economical alternative for the price of airfare and accommodation. July and August is the very high season, especially for prices, because these months combine being summer for Americans and Europeans, winter for Australians and the driest season.
For scuba diving you can see Manta rays all year round and Mola Mola from July to October in Nusa Penida.

Frans Visser says:
We want to go to Nusa Penida on February 14th 2021, but do not dare to book hotels and boat tickets, afraid to loose our money if we cannot leave Sanur by fast boat. Can we reach Nusa Penida on this date and come back a week later???
Blaise says:
Hello Frans,
There are every day more than 9 fast boat companies operating daily 12 fast boats from Sanur and 8 fast boats from Kusamba. I don’t see any reason why you could not reach Nusa Penida and come back.

Lorri says:
Thank you so much for sharing your information about Nusa Penida.
Particularly that they have low covid numbers on the island 🙏🏼
I’d like to rebook my flight (with all the visa and quarantine arrangements already in place). What do you think of spending a few very low key months on Nusa Penida now?
Looking for some reassurance to go ahead I guess.
Thank you for any advise.

Hello Lorri,
I have been staying on Nusa Penida since august and it is perfect for a low key stay. It seems we are getting out of the rain season now so it is really great.
