Three Gili's in Heaven Island

The Gili Islands, Lombok, Indonesia

The Gilis island are an archipelago of three small island in the northwest coast of Lombok, Indonesia. They are Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air.
We can call them as Turtle capital of the world, because when they are being watched by plane in the sky, islands like as Turtle cranium.

Each Island has several very small resorts, usually consisting of a small collection of huts for tourists, and restaurants. If we want to ride all side of island, it possible by traditional vehicle called Cidomo is bicycle or the horse-drawn carriage. You who like to diving in and around the gilis is also popular due to the abundance of fish life.


Gili Trawangan.


Gili Trawangan is the largest of Lombok's Gili Island. Trawangan has the most tourist facilities. On Gili Trawangan, there no motorized vehicles. The main of transportation are bicycles(rented by locals to tourist) and Cidomo9a small horse drawn carriage). For travelling to and from each of the gilis, we usually use motorized boats and speedboats.More Information..

Gili Meno.


Gili Meno is the middle of Lombok's three Gilis. It has swimming beaches all around the island, as well as an impressive bird sanctuary. Gili Meno is the quietest and smallest of the Gilis. However, honeymooners are often drawn to the crystal clear water and idyllic, secluded white beaches. Same like Gili trawangan, there are no cars or motorbikes and only limited accommodation options..More Information..
