prerequisite for any trip. Malaria prophylaxis is advised if your trip goes to Flores, Komodo, Sumatra, Sulawesi, the Sundra Islands

possible: apply repellents, wear long trousers/sleeves and sleep with a mosquito net. The World Health Organisation can provide
further details of the latest health news and medical advice.
Weather
Indonesia is positioned on both sides of the equator making it subject to a similar climate year round. As a rule the South is
generally drier and less hot. The average temperature ranges between 24°C and 35°C (75°F and 95°F). We cannot guarantee no
rain but we can suggest that the best season to visit Indonesia is the dry season, from mid-April to October/November.
Electricity
Indonesia uses European-style plugs with two round pins. Voltage is normally 220 V 50 Hz except in a few places where it is 110
V.
Local time
Indonesia is spread across three time zones. The Lesser Sunda Islands use Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)/ Greenwich Mean
Time (GMT) +8. Indonesia does not use Daylight Saving Time (DST).
