LOMBOK INDONEISA WEATHER
Indonesia is tropical country and the
climate is fairly even all year around.
There is no such thing as an autumn
or winter, the year being roughly
divided into two distinct season, Wet
and Dry.
The East Monsoon, from June to
September brings dry weather while
the West Monsoon, from December to
March, brings rain. The transitional
period between these two seasons
alternates between gorgeous sun-
filled days and occasional
thunderstorms.
Even in the midst of the wet season
temperatures range from 21 degrees
Celsius (70½F) to 33 degrees
Celsius (90½F), except at higher
altitudes which can be much cooler.
The heaviest rainfalls are usually
recorded in December and January.
Average humidity is generally
between 75% and 100%.
AIRPORT TAX

areas.

20-35½oC, light, casual clothes are
the most practical. Natural fibers
like cotton or linen are the most
comfortable in Indonesia's often
humid conditions. Casual clothes are

Holiday Tips: Sustainable Tourism
John Daniels, editor of Bali's award-
winning. offers some practical
suggestions making your island visit
more environmentally sustainable:
Include the environment on your
itinerary! While in Bali's see the
endangered Bali Starling, dive local
waters in search of Mola-Mola and
other marine species; take a nature
hike; raft down one of the Island's
rivers; visit a botanical garden; take
a bike tour, visit a museum, go
kayaking, paddle a canoe or go
sailing. Such activities are loads of
fun and also a lower environmental
impact. What's more, when you
purchase "green travel products"
you help an important segment of
the sustainable tourism sector grow
and prosper.
Think before you consume! Carry a
refillable drinking bottle; carry a
cloth bag for your shopping
purchases; buy locally made products
whenever possible; and beware of
wasteful packaging practices. When
you leave Bali, don't leave a pile of
trash behind. Bio-degradable
products and packaging are
definitely the sustainable way to
travel.
Think before you buy! How "green"
are your purchases? Deal with hotels
and tour operators who have an
active conservation program.
Laundry reduction, water
conservation and energy
conservation programs all add up to
make an important difference. Spend
your money with companies who share
your concern for nature.
No go zones! Do not buy items made
from coral, sea shells, turtle shells
and the dead remains of endangered
species. Never give money directly to
children, but consider instead a
donation to one of Bali's outstanding
philanthropic organizations.
Conserve our precious fossil fuels
and reduce your carbon footprint!
Join a seat-in-coach tour of Bali;
private cars burn more gas. Turn off
your room air conditioner and enjoy
the sea breeze. Use rechargeable
batteries, Bali's landfills don't need
your unused batteries. When possible
use the waste bin, not your toilet
for disposal. Reduce energy, water
and detergent use by asking your
hotel not to change linen on a daily
basis. Take a walk and enjoy our
tropical climate - after all, its one of
the reasons you came here. The best
way to meet the Balinese is on foot.
Gifts for Balinese friends? Give
items of lasting value and, when
possible, purchase items produced by
the local community.
Eat more vegetables. While it may not
be practical for you to become
"meatless"- it's worth remembering
that 100 vegetarians can dine on
the grains it takes to produce the
meat requirements of a single non¬
vegetarian.
Most importantly, be sure to have
fun in Bali. You're visiting one of the
word's richest cultures. By visiting
the Island you're paying the Balinese
a high compliment and helping to
sustain its number one industry.
"Take only digital pictures leave only
footprints.
LOMBOK TRAVELING TIPS
1. Peel the fruit before eating, avoid
raw vegetables except at reputable
restaurants.
2. Drink always from bottled water and
eat well done cooked food.
3. Street or beach vendor often hard
pushing on selling and most visitors
feel inconvenient, just ignore them,
unless you are interesting to see
just have a look and not give any
promise to them, just say Thank you
[TIDAK TERIMA KASIH].
4 . Protect your self from Sun burn by
Sun cream or Sun block.
5. Sexually transmitted diseases are
increasing in Indonesia. Local sex
workers have multiple partners from
all over the world. Act responsibly
and use Condom.
6. During peak Season in Lombok, we
recommended that you book your
flight in advance, due to the limited
number of flights,
