Sekotong Bay - overnight sea kayaking adventure. 1 night / 2 days

Gili Nanggu Beaches

Just off the the south western coast of Lombok, in Sekotong Bay, is a string of beautiful islands known as the South Western Gilis. The south western peninsula and the adjacent islands are the most remote part of Lombok with the least amount of tourism and development. Its a beautiful and largely untouched area and a perfect destination for our overnight sea kayaking adventure.

For travellers who make the trip south you will find relatively undeveloped islands with some islands being completely deserted. The locals live the way they have for centuries: by harvesting fish and pearls. These islands offer the best snorkelling in Lombok and some of the best beaches.

Lombok Adventures has combined the best of the Islands natural attractions in our overnight sea kayaking tours.

Travel by traditional Sampan fishing boat from Senggigi beach and enjoy the 90minute cruise to the islands. Our first stop is tiny Gili Poh. Here we will adjust the sea kayaks and begin a complete safety brief. Enjoy a fresh fruit breakfast on the Island before starting our first paddling leg  towards Gili Ringgit, home to a few local fisherman and thousands of tropical fish who are waiting to meet you! After a morning snorkel we paddle even further east to the largest island in Sekotong Bay, beautiful Gili Gede.

Enjoy lunch at the resort restaurant before sea kayaking and snorkelling along the island's white sand coastline. Or you may just want to  lap up the fantastic scenery beach side. The choice is yours! Paddle as less or as much as you want. Our Sampan will be with the group at all times allowing us the flexibility and safety to cater fro everyones needs.

 

Gili Nanggu Resort

Cruise westward to Gili Nanggu resort for our overnight stay. Enjoy the hospitality and great food. Chat about the days experiences over a drink and watch the sun go down in style! Stay in bungalow accommodation tonight overlooking the water.

After breakfast we will paddle along side gorgeous island coastlines to Gili Sudak, another sun drenched island offering amazing snorkelling and beaches. Paddle to Gili Tangkong,  yet another near deserted island adrift in Sekotong Bay. After a packed lunch on the island we will reluctantly head back to Senggigi via our traditional Sampan fishing boat. A great experience and a fantastic way to explore the wonderful South Western Gilis.
