Gili Island Lombok
Gili Air
Gili Air is the smallest of the Gilis and it's closest to the Lombok mainland, making it popular with honeymoon couples and travelers seeking a quiet retreat. It has population of about 1,000 and administratively lies in the West Nusa Tenggara province. The island offers excellent snorkeling and scuba diving off its east coast, and turtles can be seen along the coral reef.
Gili Meno
Gili Meno is the middle of Lombok's three Gilis. It has population of about 400, mainly concentrated on the center of the island. The main income of the population comes from tourism, coconut plantation and fishing. On the west side of the island there is a small shallow lake that produces salt in the dry season. Until a few years ago there was also a small production of seaweed on the reef at the north end of the island. It has swimming beaches all around the island, as well as an impressive bird sanctuary.
Gili Trawangan
Gili Trawangan is the largest of Lombok's Gili Islands and is the
only one to rise significantly above sea level. It is 3km long and
2km wide with a population of about 700. Of the Gilis, Trawangan has
the most tourist facilities; the pub Tîr na Nôg claims that
Trawangan is the smallest island in the world with an Irish pub. The
most crowded part of Trawangan lies on the eastern side. It is
administered under Lombok Barat Regency along with Sengigi Beach.
On Gili Trawangan (as well as the other two Gilis), there are no
motorized vehicles. The main means of transportation are bicycles
(rented by locals to tourists) and cidomo (a small horsedrawn
carriage). For traveling to and from each of the Gilis, locals
usually use motorized boats and speedboats.
Some of the first inhabitants of Gili Trawangan were from Sulawesi
who are fishermen and farmers. Previously Gili Trawangan was covered
in forest and deer lived on the island.
The economy of Gili Trawangan centres on tourism, as the island is
too small to support any broad scale agriculture, and too remote to
allow economically viable industry or commerce.
