All twelve months scored on daily temperature, rainfall, humidity and holiday crowding.

No fare history for this route yet, so this ranking is climate and crowds only — the price column will fill in as the scanner collects.

A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. It is flagged rather than scored down, and crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.

The year in Bali
Bali experiences a wet season from November to March, which could affect travel plans. The peak tourist times are around the end of December to early January.
| Busiest |
mid Dec to early Jan — This period coincides with the Christmas and New Year holidays, attracting many tourists.
|
|---|---|
| Quieter, still good |
early Jun to late Jun — This month sees fewer tourists compared to the peak season yet offers good weather.
early Oct to mid Nov — Transitioning into low season, visitors can enjoy better rates and fewer crowds.
|
| Wet or stormy |
mid Nov to late Mar — monsoon, moderate
|
This section was written by a language model from the climate figures above, and nobody has checked it. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe. The busiest and quieter periods here also count toward the crowd score, which is 20% of the ranking.
