Gili-islands
The three Gili-islands that lay just off the coast of Lombok represent to many the ultimate image of a bounty-island: beautiful white beaches, a deep blue sea and a coral reef that starts just of the coast and stretches away for miles. Because there is no traffic on the islands (everything is transported by horse-car) and most accommodations are small-scale the islands have a very relaxed atmosphere.
