Discover a Hidden Side of the Secret Gili Islands

Looking for a different way to experience the Secret Gili Islands in Southwest Lombok?

This private snorkeling day trip takes you beyond the usual island-hopping routes to explore four different coastal and island destinations: Gresak Bay, Elak Elak Bay, Sunset Bay, and Gili Nanggu.

The journey begins with the calm waters and young coral growth of Gresak Bay, continues to the clear waters of Elak Elak Bay, then explores the lesser-known waters of Sunset Bay before ending at Gili Nanggu.

With a private boat reserved exclusively for your group, you can enjoy each location at a relaxed pace and spend more time in the water.

A Different Secret Gili Islands Snorkeling Experience

The Secret Gili Islands are known for their clear waters, coral reefs, beautiful islands, and snorkeling opportunities.

But there is more to explore beyond the familiar island-hopping routes.

This experience is designed for travelers who want to discover a quieter side of Southwest Lombok, combining lesser-known snorkeling locations with the beauty of Gili Nanggu.

Instead of simply moving from one popular island to another, the journey gives you time to explore different underwater environments and experience the coastline at a more relaxed pace.

Your Route

Lembar → Gresak Bay → Elak Elak Bay → Sunset Bay → Gili Nanggu → Lembar

Gresak Bay | Calm Waters & Young Coral Growth

Your first snorkeling destination is Gresak Bay, a peaceful coastal area with calm waters and an interesting underwater environment.

One of the features that makes this stop different is the combination of large natural rock formations and colorful young coral growth.

The developing coral creates an evolving underwater landscape, while the larger rock formations provide an interesting environment to explore while snorkeling.

Take your time in the water, observe the reef, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings before continuing to Elak Elak Bay.

Elak Elak Bay | Clear Water & Underwater Scenery

From Gresak Bay, the journey continues to Elak Elak Bay, where the water can offer excellent visibility and beautiful underwater scenery.

This is a great place to slow down and spend time exploring beneath the surface.

The quieter atmosphere also gives you a chance to enjoy a different side of Southwest Lombok, away from some of the more frequently visited snorkeling routes.

Optional Local Lunch

If you would like to have lunch during the journey, you can request a local lunch at Elak Elak Beach.

Lunch is not included in the standard package, but a meal at a local restaurant can be arranged upon request.

Sunset Bay | Explore a Lesser-Known Side of Southwest Lombok

The journey then continues to Sunset Bay, another quieter stop along the route.

For travelers interested in exploring beyond the usual snorkeling destinations, Sunset Bay adds another layer to the experience.

Rather than spending the entire day visiting well-known islands, this route allows you to explore lesser-known waters around Southwest Lombok before reaching the final destination.

It is a chance to slow down, enjoy the surroundings, and experience a different side of the Secret Gili Islands region.

Gili Nanggu | The Grand Finale

The final destination of the day is Gili Nanggu.

After exploring Gresak Bay, Elak Elak Bay, and Sunset Bay, Gili Nanggu provides the perfect finale to your private snorkeling adventure.

Spend time swimming or snorkeling in the clear water, relax on the island, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings before heading back to Lembar.

From lesser-known bays to the beauty of Gili Nanggu, the journey offers a different perspective of the Secret Gili Islands.

Private Boat | Your Trip, Your Pace

This is a private snorkeling day trip, with the boat reserved exclusively for your group.
