Indonesia’s Mount Agung volcano on the island of Bali erupted again on Wednesday 11 July 2018, sending a grey-black plume of volcanic ash and steam at least 1,500m into the skies. During this month, Mount Agung is already often experiencing an eruption. However, for those of you who have a planning to visit Bali in the near future, do not be afraid! Because the main destinations of Bali island such as Kuta and Ubud are quite far from Mount Agung and remain unaffected until now! Mount Agung danger zone area is within a radius of 9 kilometers to 12 kilometers, while the main destinations of Bali island such as Kuta are 71 kilometers and Ubud 50 kilometers from Mount Agung.
If you still hesitate to visit Bali, you can travel to the neighboring island, Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida. The island is also located quite far from Mount Agung, so it is safe to visit.
Erupted Mount Agung would not affect the Ngurah Rai International Airport. To see the update information from the international airport, please connect with them through the airport’s social media account on Facebook or Instagram
DO NOT! share or spread misleading news that Bali is not safe because Mount Agung is on the highest alert status.
Keep calm and visit Bali!
