Where should you go in Indonesia in december when it comes to the weather?
Remember:
The climate in Indonesia in december ranges from tolerable to very bad depending on the region and city.
That month is not the best month to travel to in Indonesia. The weather in Padang City, Manado, Raja Ampat Islands, Makassar, Surakarta and Bali is quite correct. The sun is not there all the time and you risk you to be soaked by rain often. However, if you don't plan a pool and sun travel but rather sightseeing or hiking, this climate may suit. In addition, there are certainly fewer tourists at this time of year.
It's much worse in Malang, Borneo (Pontianak), Bandung, Semarang, Sumatra (Medan), lake Toba, Lombok, Java (Jakarta), Yogyakarta, Karimun Java, Batam, Gili Islands, Surabaya and Komodo island and surrounding areas where the climate is very bad. We really do not recommend you to visit these areas this month.
