Gili Trawangan

Lombok’s most popular tourist destination, the Gili Islands came to the attention of the wider world as a backpacker mecca in the 1980s and 1990s. Gili Islands consist of Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air. Gili Trawangan (Terawangan), or simply Gili T, is the largest and most visited of the three Gili Islands off Lombokk, known as party island. Fast boat services are the quickest and most direct way to travel to the Gili Islands from Bali. There are now numerous direct boat services from Bali to the Gilis, all of which continue onto the main island of Lombok. On Gili Trawangan (as well as the other two Gilis), there are no motorised vehicles. The main means of transportation are bicycles (rented by locals to tourists) and cidomo (a small horse-drawn carriage). For travelling to and from each of the Gilis, locals usually use motorised boats and speedboats.
