Lombok Holidays

Sitting just to the east of famous sister island Bali, Lombok is undoubtedly Indonesia's up-and-coming beach destination. The island is dominated by Gunung Rinjani - Indonesia's second highest volcanic peak - and fringed by powdery beaches and coral atolls, including the white sand droplets of the Gili Islands. If you’re looking for light sandy beaches without the crowds, tailor-made Lombok holidays are the perfect choice, and the island is blessed with a growing collection of luxury boutique hotels. Relax on its picturesque shores, snorkel and dive vibrant coral reefs, surf the breaks just off shore, and enjoy the freshest seafood, straight off the boat. Heading inland, Sasak villages - many of which expertly create pottery and textiles - sit within lush forests, tobacco and rice fields. There are beautiful temples to explore, alongside cascading waterfalls and the fertile slopes of Gunung Rinjani. Climbing to the crater rim of this active volcano is possible too, where the reward is a breath-taking view of the turquoise crater lake, a 'baby' volcano, and even straight across the water to Bali on a clear day. Holidays to Lombok promise exploration and relaxation in equal measure. Read more
