Lombok Island



The island of Lombok is located east of Bali island and can be easily accessed by air or by sea. The simple pleasure of sunshine, white sandy beach in quieter settings, unique culture, friendly people and eco-adventure tours makes Lombok a perfect getaway for individual travelers, honeymooners, families or those who look for a total relaxing holiday.
Lombok is an island in West Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesia. It is part of the chain of the Lesser Sunda Islands, with the Lombok Strait separating it from
Bali to the west and the Alas Strait between it and Sumbawa to the east. It is roughly circular, with a “tail” to the southwest, about 70 km across and a total area of about 4,725 km² (1,825 sq mi). Lombok in Indonesia language and local Sasak people has different meaning. In Sasak Language Lombok mean Straight and in Indonesia language meaning is Chili.

Lombok is much more tranquil and quiet than Bali but still has the same tropical climate and beautiful beaches. Rock climbing, diving and trekking are the main activities but this doesn’t mean you can’t just relax next to your hotel pool. There are a number of beach huts and resorts to choose from and most are geared towards the diving community.
