Bali is This Month's "Chan's Pick"
Singapore's most established travel specialist, Chan Brothers Travel Pte Ltd, has selected Indonesia's paradise island of Bali as this month's "Chan's Pick" destination, and has lined up some enticing special offers at top hotels and resorts. Bali enjoys tropical weather, being only a few degrees south of the equator. The sun rises at 6 a.m. in the morning and sets at 6 p.m. in the afternoon, every day of the year. Temperature variation is very small, averaging around 26-30 Celsius, and Bali does not have four seasons. Bali only has a wet season, typically from September to February, and a dry season for the other half of the year. But the difference is marginal; at the peak of the wet season you will see about a half-hour to an hour of serious downpour in the afternoon, about perfect for a siesta. The rest of the time it's a nice, warm temperature, especially with a twist of sea breeze on the beaches.
