Best time to visit Indonesia

Indonesia generally experiences a tropical climate with variations between the wet and dry seasons. The dry season, typically from May to September, is the peak season, with average temperatures around 27–30°C (81–86°F) and lower rainfall that suits beach stays, island-hopping, and outdoor activities. The shoulder season runs roughly from April to early May and from October to early November, with slightly higher humidity, occasional showers, and temperatures between 26–30°C (79–86°F), making it a good time for quieter travel. The low season usually falls between November and March, when the wet season brings heavier rain and occasional storms, especially in coastal and highland areas, with temperatures around 25–29°C (77–84°F) but fewer crowds in many destinations.
