The dramatic mountains and sweeping coastlines of Lombok are only a 30-minute flight, but a world away from Bali.
For wildlife, world-class surf breaks and breathtaking turquoise bays, Lombok is the perfect location for a laid back escape and the gateway to the Gili islands. Here you’ll discover some of the world’s finest snorkelling and diving, or simply soak up the sun in this remote part of Indonesia.
