pretty much all of August. All I could get when I booked in May was 6 days at the beginning of our month. When we got there it was indeed full. We moved on to Sanur at Taman Agung which was not full but considering the building going on I thought it was reasonably full. Then to Secret Garden which was full too. Then to Hotel Kumala (because KP was full) and guess what that was full too.
There were a lot of domestic tourists around Independence Day. On the beach at the back of KP, Zanzibar etc some days the seats were all full and they were dragging extras from way up the beach. So I felt it was quite busy but maybe it was just the properties we stayed at being popular???
I also don't think the footpaths will ever feel as crowded as they used to because all those little wooden racks selling sunnies etc etc are pretty much gone.
