14 Days in Lombok, Kuta, Indonesia

Forget Bali and travel to Lombok!! After spending 7 months on Bali, and only 14 days on Lombok, I am very excited about Lombok! The Indonesian island has beautiful nature and is known for amazing beaches and surfing spots. This Lombok itinerary will show you how to make the most of two weeks in Lombok, spending time in Senggigi, Mataram, Ampenan, Kuta, and around Indonesia’s second highest volcano: Mount Rinjani.

Today I take the fast boat from Padang bai in Bali to Bangsal harbor in Lombok. In about 2.5 hours we reach the harbor, where I continue my trip to Senggigi. Together with other travelers also heading to Senggigi, I decide to share a car with private driver to Senggigi.

After an hour driving, I arrive at my first overnight place, Zerosix Villa Senggigi, an amazing and unique Airbnb villa. In the evening, I go to the city center to rent a scooter and to try some fresh seafood at the amazing beach restaurant ‘Coco Loco Bar & Restaurant’.

Today we’re going to explore some of the most beautiful islands of Indonesia with incredible natural beauty and unexploited nature. The islands, Gili Nanggu, Gili Tangkong, Gili Kedis and Gili Sudak, are located at the southwest of Lombok and can only be reached by boat. ......
