Detailed itinerary

If you’ve already visited the three main Gili islands and want to explore lesser known islets off the southeast coast of Lombok, pack your swimsuits and jump on this tour! We’ll get off the beaten path to underrated wonders on this full day Pink Beach and Southeast Gili Islands Private Tour. Don’t forget sunscreen and a change of clothes!

After pickup at your hotel, we’ll be heading to the Telong Elong Harbor and boarding a private chartered boat to our first stop of the day – Pulau Pasir. Also known as Sand Island, this large patch of, well, sand in the middle of the sea is a great place to swim around and enjoy the clear, turquoise waters.

We’ll head to Pink Beach 2 (Pantai Angin Angin) next. Located barely 2km away from the main Pink Beach or Pink Beach 1, this less-crowded area is the perfect place to relax and swim around.

From Pink Beach 2 it’s just a short boat ride to our next island, Gili Petelu. Don’t expect fancy amenities or even bathrooms on this strip. Don your snorkeling gear, dive into the inviting waters, and hopefully spy a friendly fish or ten.

Explore Gili Gambir, an exotic island in Lombok known for its striking natural beauty and strong cultural traditions. Beyond its turquoise waters and unspoiled landscapes, the island is home to an indigenous community that has preserved its ancestral way of life for generations. Here, you can discover the island’s rich history, learn about local customs, and enjoy the harmony between people and nature. Visiting Gili Gambir offers a unique chance to experience both the stunning environment and the authentic cultural heritage of Lombok.

Snorkeling and paddling around will definitely whip up an appetite, so we’ll head to Pink Beach 1 for a hearty meal right after. Pink Beach is one of the only few pink beaches in Indonesia. It actually gets its color from pieces of reddish coral and shells that get washed up on the shore. Take photos by the pink hued sand and a dip in the sea or sit back and take in the breathtaking view. After a fulfilling day of snorkeling, paddling, and exploring Lombok’s iconic beach, we’ll make our way back and return to your hotel.
