Lombok is an Indonesian island east of Bali and west of Sumbawa. The island is known for beaches and surfing spots, particularly at Kuta and Banko Banko in south Lombok. The motor-vehicle-free Gili Islands Gili Trawangan, Gili Air and Gili Meno, found at Lombok’s west coast, offer more beaches, reefs for diving and snorkeling, and a sea turtle hatchery. Lombok geographically is almost the same size as Bali and, just as there are popular tourist areas on Bali, so Lombok offers a variety of destinations to suit different holidaymakers’ tastes. Tropical climate with warm and humid weather all year round. With beautiful beaches, enchanting waterfalls, the large, looming volcano of Mount Rinjani combined with relatively few tourists, Lombok is indeed the paradisiacal tropical island that many people still mistakenly imagine Bali to be now.
