Bali in August 2025 – is it worth going? Weather and reviews, air and water temperature in Nusa-Dua and Kuta, prices in hotels and excursions. How to do and what to look at Bali in early August and the end of summer, where to go with children – to (almost) reporting Eurotraveler.
The tropics are good place: always warm and therefore as if carefree. In a word, perfectly suitable for relaxation and rest – yes, that’s exactly the same, with a capital letter.
True, there is one harden – in the summer to tropical countries, it is as if not to go with a hand and even at general it is pointless. Too hot, too wet – only too much, even problems.
However, each rule has exceptions – Indonesian Bali in August – one of them. In other summer months, it is also very different from the “ordinary” tropical beach trends, but today is not about them.
Surprisingly, lying on the 8th degree of south latitude, that is, very close to the equator, the Indonesian island enjoys hot, but not suffocating weather all summer. He sees not so little rains, but clearly prefers to them clear weather.
In a word, it contrasts sharply both in comparison with the August Phuket, and, for example, Dubai. At the end of summer, you have to adapt to which resorts – let’s say softly – to some climatic features of an unpleasant property.
Weather at Bali in August
It is actually ideal. Suitable for both a romantic rest together, and trips to the sea of the whole family, not excluding young children.
The air temperature in Bali during August ranges to narrow limits: up to +28-30 ° C can be in the daytime and not lower than +24-26 ° C at night. Which, obviously, allows you not to melt in the sun and realize a wide range of measures without much looking at the forecasts of weather forecasters.
So after the morning bathing, you may well go to admire the impressive panoramas or inspect Bali’s main attractions.
And in the evening – enjoy your peaceful gaze with a spectacle of the divine sunset. To the accompaniment of some delicious fish dish and … chilled sparkling-why not?!
Yes, we know that it is necessary to admire sunsets on the west coast of Bali, and to settle (especially with children) is better on the eastern. But this is hardly a problem. If you have acting driver’s license and are not afraid to rent a bike or car on the Indonesian island.
The sun rises above Bali in early August at 6.30, and a month later does this for 20 minutes earlier. But it goes to “sleep” at the same time – about 18.20.
There is no reason to fear rains at the end of summer-they do not have any impressive power or pressure. The average monthly volume is about 50 mm, in each second review it is reported about thunderstorms, but very short rainfalls.
By the way, you should take into account a curious circumstance: despite the not too many inconspicuous days, the sun in the sky is often closed. Do not let yourself be misleading – on the local breadth, the cloudy sky will not protect from sunburn.
So be sure to take sunscreen and other cosmetics with you on vacation at Bali. And do not forget about the simplest medicines. Although the medical tourist insurance is also “armed”, who knows …
Winds
At Bali at the end of summer, slightly intensify. But for those who stop next to the sanitary or on Nusa-Dua, this is unlikely to create problems when bathing.
Well, on Kut, in the legiana and such places you can hardly swim normally and in other, not so windy months of the year. There, as you know, on the contrary, those who expect to ride on the waves on the surf arrive.
About where the beaches suitable for bathing are on Bali, read in our separate article.
Water temperature
In theory, it will allow you to swim on any particular day of the month. Since, even in early August, the sea off the coast of Bali is warm to the acceptable +25-26 ° C. And does not cool below +24 ° C in the most unsuccessful years.
However, you should always remember about the ebbs and flows that differ here by some incredible force. And also do not forget about the fact that Bali is washed by actually the Indian ocean (from the west so accurately).
Which sometimes sucks powerful waves to the shore. And also with hunting forms chipping trends that can, without any efforts, pull off even the Olympic swimming champion.
Prices 2025
We consciously will not write about the cost of flights – this is too upsetting matter, you will get together to travel from Moscow or London. Remarca – but (constantly?) Living in Thailand and Malaysia, India or Vietnam, Australia or New Zealand, citizens will appeal to the prices for flights!
As for the hotels, you can stop near the bathroom for 350+ € per week for two. The hotel will not be priority and not too fashionable, but still very good-Villa Rose 1 Sanur.
Accommodation in Nusa-Dua is more expensive. There, for living in some kind of “decent”, like separate bungalows in Kubu Dimel Suites, you will have to lay out from 600 € per week (the excellent beach of Heger is nearby).
However, there are exceptions – Allia Residence. You should only agree that the low price and the presence of a small pool helps to come to terms with 2-kilometer remoteness from the coast (on the bike to the beach 5-7 minutes).
Excursions, various ascents and hikes in the jungle, cruises cost from 25-30 € per person. At the same time, however, you will have to agree to the services of an English -speaking guide – Russian -speaking for the reason unknown to us is taken noticeably more.
About 30 € will be able to make a one-day round on Nusa-Penida. And approximately the same amount you lay out for transport and escort if you are going to admire giant stingrays on Manta Point. Individual offers (a private boat trip) will cost 90-100 €.
What to do
Now – about the pleasant, about, in fact, for which they go to Bali. After all, attractions and just beautiful places on the island – more than enough. And if you do not have enough impressions, you can always go not only to Nus Penida or Gili archipelago, but also a lot further.
For example, get to the island of Lombok and there, as a small path, rise to the Rinjani volcano, from the top of which fantastic views open. Active tourists see nothing complicated to get to the Bromo volcano in Java. Well, or even go to Komodo – it’s interesting to see fossil lizards live?!
However, at Bali itself, you will find how to diversify hotel-lane leisure. Children will definitely appreciate the slides at Waterbom Bali Indonesia, which is located in Kut and is considered the best island water park. Well, for adults in such a short -lived month as August, you should definitely deal with trips to the main attractions.
In particular, you simply do not forgive yourself if you do not attempt to climb the Batur volcano. Which today “sleeps” firmly and is a fairly easily accessible goal even for the physically prepared citizens. His fellow, Agung, on the contrary, is much more demanding on the condition of the ascenders.
The city of Ubud and the “Monkey Forest” are present in the list of “obligatory” places, also terraced rice plantations of Tegallang, waterfalls in the jungle. And a number of local Buddhist temples.
Moreover, the “number 1”, Purah-Besski, today sometimes gives the palm of the championship to the picturesque tanes of the sucker on the shore of the ocean. And Lempoyang, to whose “split gate” with a view of Aguung, a tourist queue is almost always snaking. Yes, not small – in anticipation there you can spend a couple of hours (valuable) time.
