Depok Weather in November

November: wet-season days

November feels hot, damp and cloudy in Depok. Highs reach 30°C, while rain falls on 26 days and humidity stays high. You may get only brief sunny spells, so long outdoor plans can be interrupted by showers.

Rain can make a stroll around the University of Indonesia campus or its lakes muddy. Keep indoor stops, such as the Depok Town Square mall, in mind for a downpour. Skip relying on a full day outdoors at Masjid Kubah Emas; heavy rain can make the journey less comfortable. December is even wetter, while October is less rainy.

Holidays and quieter streets

Indonesia marks Heroes' Day on November 10. It's a national day of remembrance, rather than a big Depok festival, so don't expect citywide celebrations. You might see ceremonies at schools or public institutions.

If you hate crowds, November can be a calmer time to visit than August, one of Depok's best months for travel. It's in the rainy season, so visitor numbers and accommodation rates may be lower than in drier months, though prices vary. Local traffic can still slow down sharply in rain, especially around Margonda Road.

Make the rain work for you

Travelling with kids? Keep a mall or an indoor stop in your plans for wet afternoons. On clearer spells, explore the University of Indonesia campus, then take the KRL Commuter Line from UI station toward central Jakarta.

A Depok-specific tip: use the campus station rather than walking a long way across the UI grounds when rain is falling. Pavements and paths can get slick, and the campus is spread out. Carry a small umbrella for the walk between the station and your destination.
