Weather in Bali for November
Bali has two seasons: wet and dry. Wet season runs from October to April. And dry season runs from May to September.

November is the beginning of the rainy season in Bali. Fortunately, much of the rainfall in November is at night. But things dry up pretty quickly. Also, it’s not as rainy as January or February.
It rains an average of 11 days in November. And there is an average rainfall of seven inches.

Visiting Bali in November
November in Bali is off season for tourists. Because it is off season, hotels and villas usually lower their rates. And this can lead to a substantial savings.
What’s more, many restaurants and clubs may offer special promotions in order to attract business. In addition, many shops might put things on sale.Â
What to Do in Bali in November
One of the joys of visiting Bali is the chance to stumble across an unexpected ceremony or festivity. Unfortunately, they are far too numerous – and localized to list. Even your tour guide might not be aware of them! Anyway, here are a couple of the island’s higher profile events taking place in November. Â
Please be advised that with the exception of statutory holidays, dates may change, and events may be postponed or canceled.Â
Tumpek Landop – 5 November 2022

Tumpek Landep is one of the six auspicious days on the Balinese calendar. These days occur when the fifth day of the five-day Balinese week falls on a Saturday. And this happens every 35 days. In fact, it takes 210 days to complete the cycle. To clarify, the Balinese year has 210 days.
Tumpek Landep is the first day in the Tumpek cycle. And it is the day that the Balinese honour the weapon god. But this extends to other metal objects, as well.
On this day devotees make offerings to objects that are made of metal. In addition to ceremonial objects, the custom extends to modern objects such as mobile phones, computers, automobiles, and bicycles.
On one of my trips to Bali, I was surprised to see employees at my hotel arriving with offerings dangling from the fronts of their cars and motor scooters. When I inquired, an employee told me about Tumpek Landep. Moreover, he accompanied me to a nearby temple that evening, where I was able to observe the tail end of a beautiful ceremony.
Only in Bali!!!
