Lombok in November
Good time to visit
November shows early signs of wet season return but still offers decent weather windows. Prices drop and crowds thin out, making it good value despite increasing rain chances.
Weather
Transitional month where humidity climbs to 75% and rain increases to 8-10 days. Mornings stay clear but afternoon build-ups become more common. Still plenty of sunshine between showers.

All Months
April through September delivers Lombok's best weather – dry skies, steady trade winds, and comfortable temperatures around 28°C. This is also peak season, so expect higher prices and busier beaches, especially on the Gilis. July and August see the biggest crowds as European summer holidays kick in. May and September offer the sweet spot: great weather with fewer tourists and better deals on accommodation. The wet season runs October through March, but don't write it off completely. December and January bring heavy rains that can last for days, making Mount Rinjani treks impossible and turning dirt roads into mud pits. But February and March see lighter, shorter showers that cool things down nicely. Plus, accommodation prices drop by 40% and you'll have beaches mostly to yourself. Just pack a rain jacket and embrace the tropical drama. Ramadan affects the entire island – restaurants close during daylight hours and the party scene dims considerably.
