Dry Season (April–October): This is the best time to visit Ubud, with warm temperatures, little rainfall, and lush green landscapes, making it ideal for temple visits, rice terrace hikes, and yoga retreats. July and August are the busiest months, with higher hotel prices and more tourists, while April–June and September–October offer great weather with fewer crowds and more affordable accommodations.
