Lombok Coastal Drive, Gili Trawangan Exploration and Gili Meno Snorkelling

• We will pick you up at the pickup point or your hotel, then take you by private car to the northern part of Lombok, passing several pristine beaches and bays along the northern coastline of Malimbu Cliff with a breathtaking view of the Lombok Strait.
• From Lombok Harbor, we catch a private boat, and it will take us about 30 minutes to the most popular small island, Gili Trawangan. Once we arrive on Gili Trawangan, spend 3 hours exploring the island on your own, and consider visiting the local mosque or venturing into the tunnels on the island.
• Next, put on your snorkelling equipment and enjoy the fish garden of Gili Trawangan. Snorkel along the reef of Gili Meno, keeping an eye out for colourful fish and even sea turtles. Blue coral reefs can often be seen near Gili Meno, and you can enjoy taking pictures of the underwater statues, a popular hotspot of Gili Meno. After snorkelling, proceed back to Lombok and return to your hotel.
