Getting to Komodo
What is the weather like?
The climate here is tropical averaging 25C to 30C. This place has a dry and wet season that alternates each year. Generally, the wet season is from November to March and the dry season from April to October. Heaviest rainfalls are usually recorded in December and January, with high humidity conditions. Even in the height of the rainy season, the rain rarely falls all day; but be prepared, torrential rains can cause postponement of land tours.
The weather in Flores like the rest of Indonesia tropical is based on a wet and a dry season that alternate every year. Indonesia's area is so vast and includes so many islands that it is impossible to deal with the entire country in isolation as there are equatorial mountains in Iran Jaya and Papua that are actually snow capped which differ greatly in climate and weather patterns to the sun kissed beaches of Bali. Thankfully the weather in Flores is practically good with extended dry season weather and with close proximity to the coast, there is often a cool breeze.
The Wet season is commonly between November and March leaving April to October to the dry season. This is a general guideline which can shift depending on local and large weather patterns meaning that the transition periods between the seasons can shift, this may be something you wish to consider if booking a holiday in the transition periods.
How long or short are the days?
Because of its position to the equator, Flores Island enjoys nearly equal amount of daytime and nighttime hours all year round.
