Gili snorkeling and island-hopping trips around Gili Air with a local Lombok team — turtle points, the statue garden and three-island days. Book on WhatsApp.
Gili Air is the closest of the three Gili Islands to the Lombok mainland — the boat from Bangsal harbour is the shortest of the three crossings. Like its neighbours it is car-free, with bicycles and cidomo horse carts doing the moving, but Air keeps a working island village alongside its guesthouses, which gives it a more local feel than Trawangan without Meno's near-empty quiet. Most travellers describe it as the balance point between the two.
From Gili Air we run the three-island hopping route across Air, Meno and Trawangan, and the snorkeling trip that works the turtle points and the underwater statue garden off Gili Meno — Air is the first island out of Bangsal, so boats reach it quickly. Travellers who want the same day on much quieter water can switch to the Secret Gili trip around Nanggu, Sudak and Kedis in the southwest.
How do I reach Gili Air from Lombok? By boat from Bangsal harbour — Gili Air is the closest of the three Gilis to the mainland, so it is the shortest of the three crossings.
