Gili
Lombok’s most popular tourist destination, the Gili Islands (or just the Gilis) came to the attention of the wider world as a backpacker mecca in the 1980s and 1990s. This is still true to some extent, and the islands are still a fixture on the Banana Pancake Trail. But times are changing, and there is now an array of glamour options on the islands, especially so on Gili Trawangan. The islands are very relaxed and laid-back, with countless little beachside cafes, restaurants and bars serving a variety of tastes in local and international cuisine. Best of all, there are no cars or motorbikes to disturb the peace.
This three islands are sorounded by the famous corrals in phyramid and pinnacles shapes that are especially rich in tropical fish. You can experience them just by drifting in the water letting the currents take you around them.
Variety of Fish : Spanish Macarell, Giant Travelly, Barracuda, Dog Tooth Tuna, Snappers and Rainbow Runner.
| Gili Trawangan The largest and most visited of the three islands. Known as the party island. |
| Gili Air The closest of the three islands to Lombok, and the one with a well developed local community. |
| Gili Meno Sandwiched between the other two better known islands, Gili Meno is very laid back indeed. |
