CLIMATE AND WEATHER OF
KALIMANTAN / BORNEO INDONESIA
| |
The island of Borneo enjoys a very favourable climate, and the Indonesian region of Kalimantan offers year-round high temperatures, which peak at more than 30°C / 86°F. The climate of Kalimantan relates directly to its equatorial setting, together with the influences of the air masses of the Asian and Indian Ocean.
Sunny weather is quite commonplace on Kalimantan, although the area is noticeably drier between June and October, when precipitation levels are at their lowest. This dry season and fine climate means that this is always a very popular time of the year to visit the island and its southerly capital of Banjarmasin.
Seasonal Variations / When to Go
Even during the hottest of climate, the gentle ocean breezes provide a pleasant cooling effect and make any periods of high humidity all the more bearable. December, January, February and March tend to be the wettest period in Kalimantan, when rainy weather is at its most likely.
