Activities on the Gili islands

Activities on the Gili islands and Lombok are plentiful and can be arranged by our staff whilst you are staying with us. Here are some of the activities that are available.

Diving the Gilis

The Gilis are known for their crystal clear waters. With an average temperature of around 28 degrees Celcius, the Gilis invite you to explore their amazing underwater world. The waters are home to colourful corals and numerous marine species like turtles, box fish, frogfish, and impressive reef sharks, and much more, making the Gilis the perfect location for both snorkelers and divers.

Just a short walk from your villa, you'll have the opportunity to participate in a variety of water based activities.  Apart from snorkeling there are freediving courses available and our diving partner Manta Dive, located only 200m away offer scuba diving courses from beginner to instructor level.

In case you'd like to stay more to the waters' surface, we invite you to go snorkelling in the more shallow areas or to enjoy the blue waters from a kayak, wakeboard or surfboard.

Other activities

Besides, Gili Villas offers you plenty activities on shore. Yoga is practiced a lot on the Gilis, as the islands provide a great setting to relax and unwind while working on your flexibility and strength. Join a yoga class and find your inner tranquility.  



Looking for some more action? Go and hit the 18-hole Golf Course (Lombok), play tennis on one of the tennis courts or explore the island on horseback. The peaceful trails guide you across the island, along the white sandy beaches while you enjoy sunrise or sunset. Naturally, you are also more than welcome to discover the islands by bike or on foot.
