Gili Islands

The Gili Islands are some of the most popular destinations in Lombok. There are 3 Gilis to choose from: Gili Trawangan is the largest and is known as a party destination. Gili Meno is the most relaxed, making it the most romantic of the 3. Gili Air is the most traditional and has an atmosphere somewhere in between the other 2 – neither a party destination nor an ‘escape the world’ sort of place.

What all 3 of these delightful little Indonesian islands have in common are beautiful beaches and fantastic seas with excellent scuba diving sites. Due to their distinctive atmospheres, it’s important to pick the right one for you. Have a look at our Go Guides to get a clear idea of what each has to offer.
