The best time to go to Alas, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, is during the dry season, which typically runs from May to September.


During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny weather and lower humidity, making it ideal for outdoor activities and exploring the natural beauty of the region. The seas are generally calmer, which is great for water sports such as snorkelling, diving, or island hopping.
