The best eSIM for Australia and Bali in 2026.

Bali is in Indonesia, and Ringo Light's one Asia plan covers both Australia and Indonesia, so a Sydney and Bali trip needs a single install. I priced six brands on the same day and say which of them leave Australia out.

Cheapest unlimited eSIM for Australia and Bali: Ringo Light, $34.99 for 2 weeks and $59.99 for 30 days (Ubigi $45 and $66). Prices read 25 October 2026.

The short answer

Sydney or Melbourne, then a flight north to Bali, is a classic pairing. I priced the six Asia regional plans on 25 October 2026 for a week, two weeks and a month, read what unlimited means at each brand, and checked which plans list Australia, because several do not. For two weeks or a month across both, I would buy the Ringo Light Asia plan.

OUR PICK
Cheapest unlimited for two weeks or a month in both countries

One eSIM for Australia and Bali (Indonesia), unlimited data at full speed, 2 weeks at $34.99 or 30 days at $59.99, nothing renews. Airalo asks $49 for 15 days and $73.50 for the month, and its list leaves out Australia.

Airalo
Cheapest 3 days, for Bali only

Unlimited for 3 days at $11.50, with 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps. Its Asialink list has no Australia, so it suits the Bali leg alone.

Nomad
Cheapest data bucket

For maps and messages only: 10 GB for 30 days at $21 and 20 GB for 45 days at $35 (on sale, regular $40). Check its list for Australia first.

Ubigi
Cheapest week, and 20 GB on a monthly plan

A week with 25 GB at full speed for $25, then 2 Mbps. 20 GB a month for $19, on a plan that renews until you cancel.

Prices read on 25 October 2026: Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Ubigi on their own sites or listings, Ringo Light from its catalogue. All in US dollars unless stated. Treat every number as a snapshot.

What to do in Australia and Bali, and what your phone needs for it

Seven places a trip across Australia and Bali often includes, with the one thing your data does for you at each. Australia and Indonesia are both on Ringo Light's Asia plan, so one eSIM works at every stop.

Sydney Opera House, Sydney
SydneySydney Opera HouseThe white sail roofs sit on Bennelong Point, with the Harbour Bridge right behind. Walk round the forecourt at dusk, then take the ferry from Circular Quay.✓Tap on to Sydney ferries, trains and buses with the contactless card or phone wallet you already have.
Bondi Beach, Sydney
SydneyBondi BeachA curved surf beach half an hour from the centre, with the Icebergs ocean pool at its south end. The coastal walk to Coogee starts here.✓Swim between the red and yellow flags, and check the surf and UV forecast in a beach app before you go.
The Great Barrier Reef, From Cairns or Port Douglas
From Cairns or Port DouglasThe Great Barrier ReefThe largest coral reef system on earth, reached on day boats to the outer reef. The dry season, roughly June to October, brings calmer water.✓Out on the reef there is little or no signal. Save your boarding pass and the boat's meeting point before you sail.
Tegallalang rice terraces, north of Ubud, Bali

Go early in the morning, before the tour vans and the heat.✓Ride-hailing apps like Grab and Gojek get you back to Ubud, but some villages ban their pickups, so check the pin before you book.
Uluwatu temple, Bukit peninsula, south Bali

One plan for both countries: Ringo Light

Australia and Bali is a long way from Sydney to Denpasar, but it is one eSIM if you choose the right one. Ringo Light's Asia plan covers both Australia and Indonesia, and Bali is in Indonesia. Two country eSIMs mean installing a second one on arrival, with the airport wifi to do it.

I read Ringo Light at $34.99 for 2 weeks and $59.99 for 30 days on that plan, and nothing renews. The regional rivals charge $45 at Ubigi for a fixed 30 GB at full speed, $49 at Airalo, $51.50 at Holafly and $54.99 at Saily for about two weeks, and $66 to $86.99 for a month. Airalo and Holafly do not list Australia, so for this route their prices apply to Bali alone.

Ringo Light's own country plans also cost more together. Australia's 2 weeks is $23.99 and Bali's $23.99 on their own pages, $47.98 together, against $34.99 for the Asia trip that covers both. For a month, Australia's 30 days is $35.99 and Bali's $35.99, $71.98 together, against $59.99.

The exception is a month spent mostly on one side. Either country's 30 days on its own page costs $35.99, which beats $59.99. The Asia plan is for a trip that really uses both.

Which plans cover both countries

Ringo Light covers both. Australia and Indonesia, where Bali is, are on its list of 20 countries, so one eSIM works in each, at one price and with the same terms.

This pair is where the lists matter. The Asia post says Airalo's Asialink has no Australia, and that Holafly's Asia plan has no Australia either. For Saily (22 countries, Asia and Oceania), Nomad (14) and Ubigi (17) I could not confirm Australia or Indonesia from the Asia post, so I would open each list before paying.

If Sydney is not your only stop in the region, Ringo Light also covers New Zealand on the same eSIM.

If you want a data bucket: Nomad or Airalo

  • Nomad, $21 for 10 GB. The lowest 10 GB price on its 14-country APAC plan, and 20 GB for 45 days at $35 (on sale, regular $40). I would check that the plan lists Australia.
  • Airalo, $25 for 10 GB. Asialink, 18 countries, 20 GB for 30 days at $39, buckets from $4 for 1 GB. Australia is not on its list.
  • Ubigi, $28 for 10 GB. Best Asia, 17 countries. The 20 GB plan at $19 is monthly and renews until you stop it.
  • Saily, $35.99 for 10 GB. Asia and Oceania, 22 countries, with no 20 GB bucket on its listing on 25 October 2026.
  • ✓Ringo Light, no buckets. It sells unlimited trips: 2 weeks at $34.99 and 30 days at $59.99. For a fixed 10 GB, Nomad and Airalo cost less, and for 20 GB so do Nomad, Airalo and Ubigi's monthly plan. I would buy Ringo Light here for unlimited and for a list that includes Australia.

What Ringo Light is

Ringo Light is Ringo's own data eSIM, and I write for Ringo, so read my picks with that in mind. It is sold to fund the full Ringo, one plan that works everywhere with your own number ported onto it. For Asia it sells two trips across 20 countries, Australia and Indonesia among them, both unlimited data at full speed: 2 weeks at $34.99 and 30 days at $59.99. Nothing renews. The eSIM arrives by email in seconds and installs in one scan, no app.

The card to buy it is further up this page, just after the side-by-side table.

Pick by trip

A week in Australia only

I would read the Australia page. Ringo Light sells no week, and its Australia 2 weeks at $23.99 costs less than the Asia plan.

Four days in Bali, no Australia

Airalo unlimited, 3 days, $11.50, works for Bali alone, or Ubigi's week with 25 GB at $25. Ringo Light sells no 3-day plan on the Asia trip.

Two weeks, Sydney then Bali

I would buy Ringo Light unlimited, 2 weeks, $34.99, less than any rival charges for two weeks on a regional plan, and it lists Australia.

A month, working remotely from both

I would buy Ringo Light unlimited, 30 days, $59.99.

Light use, budget first

I would buy Nomad 10 GB for 30 days at $21, once its list shows Australia and Indonesia.

You need your own number to keep ringing

No travel plan here does that. The full Ringo, which Ringo Light funds, ports the number you have.

Frequently asked questions

Does one eSIM work in both Australia and Bali?+
Yes, if the plan lists both Australia and Indonesia, where Bali is. Ringo Light's Asia plan does. Airalo's and Holafly's Asia plans leave out Australia, so I would not buy either for this route.
Which eSIM is cheapest for an Australia and Bali trip?+
For two weeks or a month of unlimited data, I would buy Ringo Light: $34.99 for 2 weeks and $59.99 for 30 days on 25 October 2026. Airalo asks $49 and $73.50, and does not list Australia. For a 10 GB bucket, Nomad at $21 if its list fits.
Is unlimited really unlimited?+
Every brand has a limit somewhere, and I read each one. Airalo slows you after 3 GB a day, Saily after 5 GB, Nomad after 2 GB, Ubigi after its fixed full-speed amount. Holafly states no daily cap for your own phone. Ringo Light is unlimited data at full speed.
Should I buy two country eSIMs instead?+
Not for a trip with both, in my reading. Ringo Light's Australia and Bali plans cost $47.98 for two weeks together, against $34.99 for the Asia plan, and you install once, not twice.

Ringo Light is our own product. We put it in the table on the same terms as everyone else, and where a rival is the better buy the page says so.

Left out: Maya Mobile. We could not read its own prices for this country on the day, so it stays out rather than being guessed.
