Understanding Bali’s Climate

Bali has a tropical climate and two main seasons: the dry season (April to October) and the wet season (November to March). The mangroves thrive throughout the year, but it is better to visit during the dry season for easier paths and more comfortable canoeing/kayaking or boat tours.

The Magic of Morning Visits

Mornings in the mangrove forests are beautiful and calm. The air is fresh, the water is still, and the wildlife is starting to wake up. This is the best time to see birds and other animals in their natural habitat. It’s a good idea to start early in the morning for a peaceful experience.
