Bali essentials

If nature or travel disrupts your trip

Bali sits in an active seismic zone and gets heavy rain seasonally — here is what to do.

Earthquake

  • During shaking

    Drop, cover and hold. Stay away from windows and anything that can fall on you.

  • After shaking stops

    Check yourself and others for injuries, then follow hotel or venue staff instructions.

Tsunami

  • Move immediately

    If you are on the coast and feel a strong or long quake, or an official warning is issued, move inland or to higher ground straight away — do not wait for a second warning.

  • Follow signage and authorities

    Follow evacuation signage and instructions from local authorities.

  • Check official information

    Check BMKG (bmkg.go.id) or local authorities for current information.

Volcanic ash and flights

  • Airports can close at short notice

    Volcanic ash can close airports and cancel flights with little warning.

  • Check before you travel

    Check your airline and the airport for current status, and do not travel to the airport before confirming.

  • Visa deadline affected

    Contact VISIO if an ash-related delay affects a visa deadline.

Rainy-season flooding

  • Never drive or ride through floodwater

    Roads can flood fast and depth is hard to judge — never drive or ride through floodwater.

  • Delay rather than push through

    Follow local route advice and delay travel rather than pushing through a flooded road.

Conditions change quickly. Always follow official BMKG/local authority and hotel instructions on the day.
