Start Early
Traffic in Bali builds mid-morning; an early depart from port adds more time at key sites and cooler temperatures.
Bring Local Cash
Small temples, markets and some parking attendants accept only rupiah; carry small notes for entrance fees and tips.
Respect Temple Etiquette
Carry a sarong or wear clothing that covers shoulders and knees; some temples require a sash at the entrance.
Footwear for Mixed Terrain
Expect paved paths, slick stones at waterfalls and short stair sections — choose grippy, quick-dry shoes.
Sturdy walking sandals or light hiking shoes
Good traction for temple steps, wet rocks and village streets.
Light rain shell or packable poncho
Short, intense showers can occur in the wet season, especially in the highlands.
winter
Reef-safe sunscreen and sun hat
Protects skin during beach stops and open viewpoints.

Small daypack with quick-dry change of clothes
