ClimateStraddling the equator, Indonesia’s climate is tropical — hot with very high humidity — and wet and dry seasons. There are periodic short rain showers even in the dry season.
Transport Bemo (public minibuses) and taxis are probably the most common form of transport around town and inter-city. In cities, Ojek (motorcycle riders), becak (three-wheeled carts) and taxis abound. Commuter rail exists in very few cities.
Best time to travelRoughly speaking, the weather in Indonesia is split into wet and dry seasons, of which May to September is dry. The dry season coincides with peak tourist season.
What to wearWhile dress-sense is casual here, be conservative — especially when visiting temples. Take into consideration the heat and humidity — lightweight, natural fabrics will be more comfortable. If visiting the mountains, carry a jumper. Be prepared for sudden rain bursts. Avoid wearing shorts or swimwear outside resort areas.
