Gili Islands, Lombok

The Gili Islands are an archipelago of three islands located off the northwest coast of Lombok, Indonesia. After a two hour fast boat ride through the rough waters off the coast of Bali, we landed on Gili Trawangan (Gili T), the largest of the three. Gili T is a tourist destination known for great diving/snorkeling, no motorized traffic (horse and buggy), and beautiful sunsets.

After a day of biking to beaches and bars, we decided to do a snorkeling trip to hopefully spot some turtles. We were pleasantly surprised to find that turtles are plentiful and very approachable!

After two fun filled weeks with Skylar, it was time to say goodbye to him and head back on the road solo.
