Bali (Indonesia) |
There are many international flights directly to Bali's airport Ngurah Rai near Denpasar. You can also reach Bali by ferry from Java (Banyuwangi to Gilimanuk) or from Lombok (Lembar to Padangbai). The large Pelni liners don't leave from Bali. Some information about Bali: Indonesia tourism - Bali travel info - Geocities - lonely planet Bali information - www.indonesiaphoto.com - Bali pesona online - International Airlines Offices in Jakarta - Offices of Domestic Airlines in Indonesia |

- Diving all year around possible, best time is May to September
- Water 23 to 26°C (some places like Nusa Penida or Secret Bay during summer) to 30°C
