Tourist taxes and driving bans
The media-savvy governor has made headlines several times in recent months for proposals ranging from banning all foreigners from driving motorbikes to withdrawing the visa-on-arrival scheme for Russians and Ukrainians, both groups having flocked to Bali in record numbers amid the ongoing war. None of these proposals have so far come to fruition. Indonesia also floated the idea this April of enacting a tourism tax of between $30 and $100 per foreign visitor – though a similar proposal in 2019 failed to gain public support. For now, there are a lot of big ideas, but few concrete changes. The headlines nevertheless highlight the nation’s growing concern with mass tourism, and the abiding need for visitors to practice more respect when traveling abroad.

Ubud’s Artistic Scene: 

The town of Ubud is a hub for art and creativity, with galleries, museums, and traditional craft markets showcasing Balinese paintings, woodcarvings, textiles, and handicrafts. Don’t miss the Ubud Art Market and the Blanco Renaissance Museum for an immersive cultural experience.

Rice Terraces: 

Bali’s picturesque rice terraces, such as the UNESCO-listed Tegallalang Rice Terraces and Jatiluwih Rice Terraces, offer stunning panoramic views of lush green landscapes sculpted by traditional farming practices. Visitors can trek through the terraces or enjoy scenic drives through the countryside.

Volcanic Landscapes: 

Bali is home to several volcanic mountains, including Mount Agung and Mount Batur, which offer opportunities for hiking, trekking, and sunrise tours. Mount Batur’s sunrise trek is particularly popular, offering breathtaking views of the sunrise over the caldera lake.

Understanding the Balinese calendar
Note that religious festivals such as Galungan and Kuningan are scheduled according to the Balinese 210-day pawukon calendar. This means they happen roughly every seven months according to the western calendar. Dates for village festivals are not always set in stone either, and the timing of the Nyepi festival is dictated by the lunar saka calendar, meaning the date changes every year. If you’re planning a trip around a festival or event, check the precise dates before you book your flights.

Best time to Visit
With awe-inspiring scenery, dense layers of culture, plenty of sun, surf and sand and balmy temperatures year-round, Bali calls out like a beacon to adventurers, sun-seekers and travelers who like to truly immerse themselves in the countries they visit. Whatever your travel tastes, you'll find rewarding things to see and do in Bali at any time of year. The dry season, from April to September, is the most enjoyable time of the year for outdoor activities, including basking on beaches, hiking, surfing, sailing, diving and canyoning. Visit during the wet season (November to March) and you'll experience frequent downpours, but there's good surf on the east coast and you can still enjoy the outdoors, especially in drier areas in the east and north of the island. Temperatures in Bali don’t vary much from season to season, hovering between 28°C and 32°C (82°F to 90°F) year-round, though it's often cooler in mountain areas. Whatever you're looking for in Bali, here are the best times to come.
