Bali is one of the most popular destinations for both vacation and remote work, while Jakarta is Indonesia's business hub. Here's which eSIM to choose for the island and the mainland.
For a week in Bali with navigation, social media and streaming, 5–8 GB is usually enough. If you plan to work remotely with video calls, or stay longer than two weeks, get 15–20 GB or a plan that lets you top up data.
Coverage is fast and reliable in Bali's tourist areas — Kuta, Seminyak, Ubud, Canggu. Jakarta's network is fast almost everywhere. In more remote parts of the island and mountain areas, like near Mount Batur, coverage can be weaker.
Many people come to Bali specifically to work remotely — for stable video calls, pick a plan with extra data and check coverage in advance if your accommodation is outside the main tourist areas.
