When you visit Bali or anywhere in Indonesia, having travel medical insurance is very important. It doesn’t matter if you stay for a few days or for many weeks.
No one can plan for health problems. You might have a small injury or a big one, and if you don’t have insurance, it can become very stressful and expensive.
Bali is a very safe place to visit, and we don’t want to make you scared. But remember, even in safe places, accidents can still happen. Bali welcomes millions of local and international visitors each year, so it’s always smart to be ready and protected.
The most common health problems in Bali are stomach sickness (often called traveler’s diarrhea) and scooter accidents. Some people also get dengue fever, but this is not very common when looking at the total number of visitors.
You might see many scary stories online about travelers who had bad scooter crashes in Bali and had to ask people online for money to help pay their hospital bills. That’s why it’s so important to be very careful if you rent a scooter — and even more important to have good travel medical insurance.
If you don’t have health or travel insurance yet, look for flexible plans from trusted companies. They can give you the protection you need during your trip.
