Best Time To Go
The rainy season lasts from October until March, with monsoon-level downpours, and is not the best time for tourism. The high season,which is Easter week and Chinese New Year, generally has higher
hotel rates. The best time to find deals for Bali travel is between September and December, and the best time to visit is during the dry season, April through October.
Transportation
Public transportation in Bali is hard to come by, but it is possible to travel by taxi or to rent a motorbike.
Pura Tanah Lot
About 20 kilometers northwest of Kuta, Pura Tanah Lot ("Pura" means temple in Balinese) is one of Bali's most iconic temples thanks to its spectacular seaside setting on a rocky islet surrounded by crashing waves. For the Balinese people, it is one of the most sacred of all the island's sea temples. (The largest and holiest Hindu temple in Bali is Pura Besakih, but recently local hagglers have been harassing visitors.)
Weather
Bali is situated near the equator and benefits from a tropical climate,with an average year-round temperature of 86°F (30°C).
Know Before You Go
One of the most picturesque things to do in Bali is a sunrise trek to the summit of Mount Batur. If you’re intrepid, fit, and don’t mind getting up in the middle of the night to go, you’ll be rewarded with some of the island’s most spectacular views.

Every day in Bali's predawn darkness, hundreds of visitors begin the trek up the 1,700-meter summit of Mount Batur to watch the sun rise above the lush mosaic of mist-shrouded mountains and the caldera far below. This sacred active volcano lies in Kintamani District in Bali's central highlands, about an hour's drive from Ubud, and the hike to the summit to watch the sunrise has long graced the list of top things to do in Bali. The hike along the well-marked trails is relatively easy and usually takes about two to three hours. Guided treks typically include a picnic breakfast, with eggs cooked by the steam from the active volcano. On a clear day, the views are spectacular, stretching all the way across the Batur caldera; the surrounding mountain range; and beautiful Lake Batur, the island's main source of irrigation water.
