Indonesia has a tropical climate with warm temperatures year-round, but conditions vary across its vast archipelago. The country experiences a wet season from November to March and a dry season from April to October, though this can shift slightly depending on the region. Java, Bali, Lombok, and Komodo share a similar weather pattern, with a well-defined dry season offering ideal travel conditions and a wetter period bringing short but intense rainfall. Other parts of Indonesia may have different rainfall patterns and seasonality, but the overall climate remains tropical.
