Indonesia is incredibly huge! There are approximately 17,500 more islands to explore, and Lombok island is definitely one worth visiting! Some of the places below are more than enough reasons for your vacation to Lombok.
Legendary Gilis
Perhaps you have heard of this secret Gili Islands. We’re positive that you stumbled across Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno & Gili Air during your Indonesia journey experience, but would you know there are plenty of more modest small islands facing Lombok’s south-western shore? A number of them literally only have one Guesthouse on the entire island, many others possess Overwater Bungalows! Prepare for the real Robinson Crusoe feels on one of these lonely islands!
Let’s Swim in the Tiu Kelep & Sendang Gile Waterfall
At the centre and north-west of Lombok, you may discover various beautiful hidden Waterfalls which are surrounded by lush and thick jungle. The most massive ones would be Tiu Kelep & Sendang Gile Waterfall at the foot of Mount Rinjani. It’s only a short hike to one of the waterfalls!
Hike Mount Rinjani in Lombok
Various hiking tours to the very top of Mount Rinjani Start in Senaru and Sembalun Lawang Village. You’re able to choose between a two days/ 1 night up to a six days/ 5 nights exploration camp to make it to the top! It’s somewhat a rough conclusion, but the views from the top over the volcano lake during ski are undoubtedly worth it!
Senggigi: Collaboration of sunsets, beaches & palm trees
Senggigi is most likely the most touristic spot in Lombok, besides the famed Gili and Kuta Lombok. It is a little city that stretches across the shore of west Lombok. You’ll find lots of beachfront accommodation here, with cosy restaurants and bars to watch the beautiful sunset in the night. Do not get us wrong, in comparison to some other tourist destinations, this area still offers a relaxed feel. It may be compared to Candidasa or a more silent Sanur in Bali. Oh, almost forgot to say: you could also ride your very first waves. There are a few splendid surf places around!
Rice Fields in Tetebatu and Sembalun
Searching for a place surrounded by lush rice fields and jungles to calm your thoughts and be one with nature? Check out Tetebatu then! It’s a small village located at the foot of Mount Rinjani in middle Lombok also it’s the idyllic place to have a break in the everyday hustles and bustles of everyday life. Stroll around the rice fields and inhale deeply in the pristine nature all around you. Sembalun Lawang is another excellent spot.
Hidden areas in East Lombok
East Lombok is a tranquil place but has lots to offer you. Not only is it the central hub to take the ferry to West Sumbawa, but also, it has pristine beaches with flawlessly clear waters that are ideal for snorkelling. Even here, little lonely offshore islands like Gili Kondo and Gili Bidara are waiting to be explored during a boat/ snorkelling trip.
