Bali in October

The dry season is ending and rainy days start to climb again. Humidity returns, but the beaches are still enjoyable. A good last light trip before the wet season; hit the beach in the morning ahead of afternoon rain clouds.

Highs averaged 30°C and lows stayed at 25°C, so the heat hung on long after sunset. The gap between day and night was just 5°C, so it felt much the same around the clock. About 16 days a month saw rain, enough that a wet-weather plan was worth having. A visitor in 2015 met 1 rain day; one in 2010 met 28. The average of 16 hid that gap.

Highs topped 30°C on 11 days of the month on average. Mixing in indoor stops at midday made sense.
