Bali weather in May

In May we vacationed in Bali, and we were captivated by the relaxing atmosphere. The weather was simply amazing: the sun was shining brightly, the sky was cloudless, and it rarely rained. The air temperature was comfortable for a beach holiday or excursions around the island. There were also few tourists during this period, making the beach holiday less crowded and adding peace and relaxation to our time in Bali.

May in Bali is considered the high season for tourists, the rains are over, and you can safely go sunbathing on the beach and enjoy the natural beauty of the Island of the Gods. Daytime temperatures show +29-32°C, with the sun often hiding behind the clouds. By evening the thermometer stops at +22-25°C. The sea warms up to +30°C. The rice terraces, Pura Lempuyang temple, zoo, and chocolate factory are amazing excursions.

In May, the transition season between dry and rainy periods begins in Bali. In most of the country the weather is humid and warm. Temperatures range from +25 to +30 degrees Celsius during the day, and can be a little cooler at night. During this period, short-term rain or thunderstorms are often observed, especially in the evening or at night. They can be quite strong, but usually pass quickly. In addition, it is quite common to see the sun and enjoy clear weather. It is important to note that the climate in Indonesia varies from region to region due to its geographical location and the presence of a huge number of islands. Some areas, such as Bali, may experience drier weather and less rain.
