Best months to visit
April to October is seen as the best months to visit Indonesia for more sunshine and less rainfall, idyllic for beach time, snorkelling and island-hopping. The height of the rainy season is from December to February, with more humidity and downpours across Bali and Komodo.

With yoga on the deck at sunset, snorkelling along the florescent reefs of Pink Beach and hiking in search of Komodo dragons in Rinca or to jawdropping viewpoints at Padar Island – Komodo National Park brings a world of intrigue to your big adventure.
