Indonesia Travel Guide - Travel to Indonesia
Travel to Indonesia - Indonesia, the largest archipelago in the world, is the sleeping giant of Southeast Asia. Indonesia markets itself as the ultimate in diversity, and the slogan is quite true. Chinese and Indian traders, European colonisers, proselytising missionaries, wayward adventurers, mining companies, intrepid travelers and package tourists have all, at one time or another, been attracted by its sandalwood and spices breezes, its Bali Hai lifestyle and its magnificent beaches, mountains and volcanoes.
When to visit Indonesia? Indonesia is generally hot year-round, but the best time to visit is the dry season, usually April-October. Keep in mind that “dry” is relative—Indonesia’s dry is like a hot, humid summer day in the southern USA. For cooler weather, head up into the mountains—although the coast swelters, the higher altitudes at least are cool at night. November-March is monsoon season (January and February are the wettest). Worldwide changes in weather patterns have affected the timing of the wet and dry seasons in Indonesia, so check forecasts before you go. The peak tourist seasons are July-September and late December-early January, during the last part of the dry season. Beat the crowds and the higher prices by going in April, May or early June, when it’s dry and yet still relatively cool.
