May is typically one of the driest months in Bali, with minimal rainfall. You can expect mostly clear skies and plenty of sunshine throughout the month. Humidity levels continue to be relatively low in May, hovering around 70% to 85%, making the weather very enjoyable. But you may still encounter some scattered showers or brief rain showers, they are less frequent compared to the wet season months.

In May, you can also expect very clear and pristine beaches, where the sea is also calm.The sea conditions are generally good for water activities like swimming, surfing, and diving. The water temperature is warm and pleasant. That’s why it is a popular time for tourists to visit Bali, so you can expect moderate to high levels of tourist activity. However, it’s generally less crowded than the peak tourist season (July and August).

Overall, May is a good month to visit Bali if you prefer dry and warm weather. It’s a great time for beach vacations and exploring the island’s cultural attractions. Just keep in mind that it can get quite busy, so booking accommodations and activities in advance is advisable.
