Bali tourism facts

An astonishing six million people visit Bali annually. Most arrive at the international airport at Denpasar, called Ngurah Rai Airport.

The average length of stay for tourists from abroad is just slightly less than three days per person, per visit. Around one in three visitors to Bali have visited the Hindu island of Indonesia at least once before.

The majority of tourists to Bali come from Singapore, Malaysia or Japan while visitors from the Middle East – countries such as Egypt and the United Arab Emirates – account for the smallest arrival block.

In between these two extremes are visitors from the United Kingdom, Australia, the United States and India. Visitors from these countries all lodge on the top ten list of country of origin.

France, Germany and the Netherlands are just outside the top ten nations sending tourists to Bali. Kuta is the most popular destination, accounting for almost two out of three guests, while satellite destinations like Nusa Dua and Kuta account for one in four visitors.
