We're now in Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo. Kalimantan enjoys a very favourable climate, and the Indonesian region of Kalimantan offers year-round high temperatures, which peak at more than 30°C. 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.

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.
However, with precipitation levels of around 300 mm / 12 inches are considerably lower when compared to many other neighbouring parts of Indonesia, such as the island of Java and in particular, Borobudur and Surabaya.

We must say that Kalimantan has a tropical climate so we need to drink enough water and do better not heavy efforts.
Keep blogging!
