THE GILI ISLANDS
On the Northwest coast of Lombok, Indonesia, lie the Gili Islands which are a trio of island which allows for a perfect getaway from your normal tedious life. The islands are Gili Trawangan, Gili Air, and Gili Meno and the islands are not only stunning with their white sand beaches and calm shallow waters but they maintain a chill vibe which will hook you up immediately.
Out of the three, Gili Trawangan is the largest, and most popular among the tourist, the main reason being its nightlife and a unique calmness coming over from the bars and resort that are dispersed all over the island. This island is a complete package since it has all the facilities for diving, snorkeling, or simply cycling around the island.
The first isle one should start within Gili Air tremendously differs from Gili Trawangan due to its calmness and stare. Widest beaches, gentle populated areas and a relaxed atmosphere is the best setting for yoga retreats, sunbathing sessions, and experiencing authentic native culture.
At the same time Gili Meno, the most remote and smallest isle, is the best place to escape for a romantic vacation. It offers deserted beaches, ideal conditions for snorkeling and a peaceful setting for newly weds and couples.
