North Lombok Trips & Tours

The north of Lombok is a treasure trove of holiday goodies. Slightly busier than the southern part (although when we say ‘busy’, it’s still blissfully quiet compared to neighbouring Bali), there are sweeping coastlines and golden beaches to ogle at and plenty of excellent diving and snorkelling. Inland, the sandy bays give way to waterfalls, forests and rice terraces sprinkled with Sasak villages, many of which still create the pottery and textiles for which they are famous. Dominating much of the landscape is Mount Rinjani, Indonesia’s second highest peak, and its fertile slopes and lowlands make for excellent hiking and walking. Then, when the sun goes down, head to the nearest beach bar, order something chilled, and sigh happily with your toes in the sand.
