The Denpasar Region III Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency BBMKG has issued an early weather warning for Bali from June 22nd to 24th, 2026. Moderate to heavy rainfall is expected in Badung, Bangli, Buleleng, Gianyar, Jembrana, Karangasem, and Tabanan regencies, covering many major tourist areas like Canggu, Seminyak, Legian, Kuta, Jimbaran, Uluwatu, Nusa Dua, and Ubud. Ocean waves of 1.25 to 2.5 meters are likely in waters south of Bali, including the southern Lombok Strait, Badung Strait, and southern Bali Strait. Strong winds are also forecast, particularly in Badung and Klungkung regions from June 23rd to 24th. Cahyo Nugroho, Head of the BMKG Region III Denpasar, advises the public, fishermen, and maritime transport operators to monitor weather updates and wave conditions. Fast boat services to destinations like Nusa Penida, the Gili Islands, or Lombok may experience choppier conditions. Boat operators are instructed to reduce speeds if winds reach 15 knots and waves are 1.5m or more. Tourists are advised to consider indoor activities due to the unusual rain during the dry season.

Lisa Snowdon visits Bali wellness retreat after separation from fiancé
TV presenter Lisa Snowdon, 54, recently visited a wellness retreat in Bali following her separation from George Smart, her partner of 12 years. Snowdon shared on Instagram that wellness for her is about connection, including meeting people, engaging in conversations, physical activity, mindfulness, and occasional emotional release. She mentioned having a "good old cry" during her trip. Snowdon also stated that she feels stronger mentally and physically after participating in activities like pilates and hot Bikram yoga. Concerns about her relationship status arose when she was seen without her engagement ring and Smart was largely absent from her Instagram since January. The couple had previously dated two decades ago, rekindled their romance in 2014, and became engaged in 2016. Last year, Snowdon indicated she was not in a rush to marry, viewing marriage as a contract and preferring a relaxed approach.
