Let’s talk periods in Bali — what to know before you go!
Ladies, if you’re heading to Bali and wondering what period care looks like here, here’s the lowdown:
💛Pads are easy to find at all major supermarkets (like Pepito, Indomaret, or Guardian). They carry familiar brands like Laurier, Charm, and Kotex.
💛Tampons are harder to find and usually only available in expat areas or pharmacies — and often just the basic kind (not many applicator options and they can be very expensive)
💛If you use a menstrual cup, you’re all set! Just be mindful of access to clean water when emptying/cleaning it if you’re out and about.
💛Bring what you love from home if you’re particular about your products — especially if you use organic pads, specific tampon types, or period undies.
💛In hotter weather, staying hydrated and comfortable during your cycle is key — we recommend carrying wipes and a water bottle in your day bag.

Let’s talk periods in Bali — yes, it’s a thing every traveling woman should plan for! Whether you're chasing waterfalls in Ubud or lounging in Seminyak, being prepared means one less thing to worry about on your trip.
Pads? Super easy to find! Local supermarkets like Pepito, Indomaret, and Guardian stock familiar brands like Laurier, Charm, and Kotex. They’re affordable and available in most sizes and absorbencies.
Tampons, on the other hand, can be a bit tricky. They're typically only available in pharmacies or shops in expat-heavy areas like Canggu or Uluwatu — and usually limited to non-applicator types. Be prepared for higher prices and less variety than you might be used to.
Menstrual cup user? You’re golden! Just make sure you have access to clean water for rinsing, especially if you’re using public restrooms or out for the day exploring. Carrying a travel-sized bottle of water and some wipes in your bag can be a game-changer.
If you're picky about your products — organic pads, period underwear, or certain tampon styles — bring a stash from home. It’s better to be overprepared than scrambling for options once you arrive.
Pro tip: Bali’s heat and humidity can make periods a little less comfortable. Stay hydrated, wear breathable fabrics, and pack a few comfort essentials. A small kit with wipes, hand sanitizer, and a reusable water bottle will keep you feeling fresh on the go.
