Weather in Bali in August

August in Bali is warm outdoor weather. Days are long enough to be useful. Shade starts to matter at midday.

In Indonesia, this is how Bali actually wears August, not how a country centroid would. August is winter in the southern year. A northern summer packing list is the wrong brief for Bali. Compared with November and July, August sits in the middle of Bali's year.
