2 Days Gili Trawangan West Nusa Tenggara

The Gili Islands are a group of 3 tiny islands – Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air – in Indonesia, near the coast of northwest Lombok Island. Characterized by sandy beaches fringed with palm trees, they’re known for their coral reefs just offshore.

• Gili Trawangan (The Party Island):
  • The largest and most popular of the three islands. Known for its vibrant nightlife, beach clubs, and social scene.
  • Activities: Snorkeling, diving, cycling, beach parties, and vibrant restaurants.
  • Highlight: Sunset views from the west coast, and vibrant parties at places like Sama Sama Reggae Bar and Trawangan Beach Club.
• Gili Meno (The Quiet Island):
  • A peaceful, quieter island ideal for honeymooners or those seeking relaxation.
  • Activities: Snorkeling with turtles, relaxing on the beach, visiting the bird park.
  • Highlight: Meno Wall (snorkeling spot), and the tranquil vibe without much commercial development.
• Gili Air (The Balanced Island):
  • Gili Air offers a perfect mix of relaxation and entertainment. It’s more laid-back than Gili Trawangan but has a few beach clubs and restaurants for a lively atmosphere.
  • Activities: Diving, paddleboarding, cycling, enjoying beach bars, and local restaurants.
  • Highlight: A peaceful but vibrant local atmosphere, ideal for a relaxed yet active vacation.

On the smallest island of Gili Meno, sea turtles swim at Turtle Point. At Gili Trawangan, the largest island, a sunken ship sits at Wreck Point near Mentigi Beach.
