When to visit
The ideal time to visit Legian for families is during the dry season, which spans from April to October. These months offer pleasant weather, perfect for exploring the stunning beaches and water sports activities. To experience the area without the hustle and bustle of peak season, consider travelling during the mid-season months of May, June, and September, when room prices and villa rentals can be 30-50% cheaper.
While the busiest times in Bali are during July, August, festive seasons, and Chinese New Year, there are plenty of family-friendly areas that remain relatively quiet, including Candidasa, Padangbai, Lovina, and Amed. As always, try to plan your holiday to coincide with your children's school breaks, to avoid any complications.
