GETTING HERE

Many roads lead to the Gili Islands and to Gili Meno in particular – the most popular options are either by (fast) boat or you fly to Lombok and take a transfer from there. It’s so easy to get to these wonderful islands that you should not miss out on a trip to the Gilis. We are more than happy to help you with your bookings, just email us on info@divinedivers.com for more information. 

 

All information provided here is subjected to change due to weather conditions and force major. Fast boat ticket prices vary but you certainly get what you pay for in terms of comfort. Please note, it isn’t necessarily cheaper to get a return ticket and often plans change especially once you have fallen in love with Gilis Meno. We know of many return tickets that have never been used.

 

 

Divine Divers is located in the North West of Gili Meno whereas the main harbor is in the South East. Gili Meno as well as the two other Gilis have banned motorized transport. You get around by walking, cycling or per horse cart. Bikes can be hired either for an hourly or daily rate, the cidomo horse carts charge you according to distance and walking is of course free. Best is to agree on the price before you hire and friendly haggling always helps.  Please expect a 20 to 25 minutes leisurely walk to get from the harbour to Divine Divers.

 

 

If walking or horse drawn carriages are not what you have on your mind, you can also charter a private boat for little money from either Lombok or the other two Gilis which will drop you off right in front of our sandy doorstep.

Gili Meno is known for its relaxed and serene beauty away from the other two island’s. The smallest and quietest of the three Gilis, Meno arguably has the best beaches of the lot – imagine white sand scattered with palm trees, fringed with crystal clear water. Gili Meno has a population of only around 500 locals. The interiour of the island is mostly palm trees surrounded by grass which is kept neat by cows grazing lazily in the shade. 

The main village is located on the eastern side of Gili Meno where you will also find the the tiny harbour alongside some accommodation options, restaurants and the doctor’s clinic. After the earthquake the west side of Gili Meno has seen more development.

ins and outs

ON THE GILIS

THINGS TO KNOW

Thank god it’s all over. Nevertheless we have all learned our lesson and we take hygiene very seriously

You can’t always influence the time your employer let’s you go on holiday and if you have children in school, you are pretty much dependant on school holidays. Overall, the Gili Islands are a great destination to visit all year round. Compared to Bali and Lombok the Gilis experience less rainfall but the rainy season is of course noticeable on Gili Air, Gili Meno and Gili Trawangan. The dry season runs from April to the end of October with the peak season being July and August. A large number of tourists visit the islands during these two months. However, Meno usually doesn’t get as busy as the other two islands so you are pretty sure to still have a super relaxing holiday.

The Gili’s are largely powered by an undersea cable from Lombok. Gili Meno as well as the two other Gilis experience power cuts at times especially when the demand is high.

Our generators provide electricity for the fridges to ensure an uninterrupted cooling chain and for the lights in your room. The power cuts don’t usually last long and they provide a perfect opportunity to use the time, look up from a screen and talk to each other.

Our sockets are made for European plugs. Coming from other parts of the world you will need to bring an adaptor. Or simply ask us, we have a few to lend.

Gili Meno has a health center which is located near Divine Divers. Only 800 meters further on Gili Trawangan you’ll find several 24-hour clinics. The doctors on Meno and Gili T can deal with minor injuries, medical problems and can prescribe certain prescription drugs.

The International hospitals in Mataram offer an excellent standard of service.

The hyperbaric chambers are located in Mataram (1 hour)  and in Tanjung (20 minutes).

Overall, there isn’t much crime on the Gilis. However, no place on this planet is 100% free of it.

Petty crime does happen, very, very rarely but it does. Therefor the same applies as anywhere else in the world: do not leave valuables in your room. Our rooms do have a safety box so please leave it there or you can also store it in our safe at reception.

There is one ATM machine on Gili Meno. In case it is not working usually it helps to just wait a day or two. 

Divine Divers (and many other places) accept visa and mastercard payments. Please be aware that we have to add 3% additional bank fees to all credit card payments.

Since we are in in the 21st century we do accept PayPal payments, google pay, apple pay but of course also the old fashioned cash and bank transfers.

If you are a party animal and want to boogie into the early morning hours then Gili Trawangan is your place to go – the biggest of the three Gilis is famous for its legendary parties. Gili Air and Gili Meno are far more sedate but not boring.

You’ll find plenty of beach bars, cafes and of course life music at Gili Meno. You’ll get to know like-minded people from around the world while enjoying a cool drink and a relaxed atmosphere.

If you don’t’s want to miss out on the fullmoon parties, then Gili T is only an 800-meter boat ride away an easy to reach for a night out while still enjoying quiet days on secluded white sandy beaches.

Gili Eco Trust is an NGO based on Gili Trawangan. It was founded in 2002 to protect coral reefs around the Gili islands from destructive fishing such as dynamite fishing and the effects of coral bleaching. The Gili Eco Trust has grown and expanded its activities from marine conservation to waste management and sustainable eco-tourism. In 2004, Gili Eco Trust started the Biorock project. The creation of artificial reefs and restoring the natural habitat of thousands of fish in previously destroyed and overfished areas of the reef.

This section is most likely to change!

At the moment it is only possible to enter Indonesia on a Business (Tourist) Visa. Before the pandemic following visas were available for tourists:

A 30 day visa on arrival (VOA) was available for most nationalities upon arrival in Indonesia. It was either free of charge or came at a cost of 35 USD depending on your nationality. Citizens of countries not eligible for the VOA were required to apply for the visa before they arrive in Indonenesia.

It was also possible to get a 60 day visa but you needed to get that at an Indonesian embassy before arrival. Alternatively you could get the 35 USD VOA (even when you were entitled for the free version) because it was possible to extend this by another 30 days. However, an extension is only possible once

There are many things to do on the Gili Islands and Gili Meno in particular

  1. Diving and Snorkeling – for sure the two main attractions on the Gilis
  2. Watch the sunset from our Bubbles Bar and Resto
  3. Surround the island on horseback, by foot or rent a bike
  4. Island Hopping by public island hopper, a tour or private boat
  5. Watersports is readily available. Take a glassbottom canoe, surf or kitesurf during rainy season
  6. Stretch your body and enjoy yoga with the sound of the sea in the background
  7. Party the night away on Trawangan and return to tranquil Meno in the early morning hours.
  8. Enjoy the life music at one of the beach bars
  9. Visit the Meno Turtle Sanctuary
  10. Relax on Meno’s pristine beaches
  11. Eat at awesome (fish)restaurants or local warungs
  12. Join the weekly beach cleanups

Indonesia is the biggest muslim country in the world. Most people are mistaken by Bali and its Hindu religion but most of Indonesia, including Lombok and the Gili Islands comprise a large muslim population who are just as welcoming and accepting of tourists.

The daily calls for prayers can be heard across Gili Meno from the local mosque. If the wind blows over from Travangan you might even hear the mosques from there at times.

Our Indonesian friends and neighbors are totally aware and understand cultural differences but please be respectful and don’t go shopping in the local village only wearing a bikini. Topless bathing is frowned upon. Actually it is prohibited by law so please accept the tan lines as a souvenir from paradise.

As in many places all over Asia, please don’t point at someone or something with your feet and use your right hand when taking something that is handed to you.

If you see shoes at the entrance of a house, a shop, or any other place, please also remove yours – even if it is only fipflops.

And finally, don’t get angry, try to solve problems with a smile.

 

Water is scarce on the islands and is supplied by desalination plants, underground or the rain. Please be conservative with water anywhere on the islands. Take shorts showers and let us know when your bed or towels need changing. Tap water is not suitable for drinking but bottled water is cheap and readily available. Please refill your bottles at refilling stations rather than buying new ones to also avoid plastic waste.

There are two ATM machines on Gili Meno. In case they are not working usually it helps to just wait a day or two. However, many places are also offering cash advances on a credit card for a fee. You won’t get stuck without money, there is always a solution.

Divine Divers accepts visa and mastercard payments. Please be aware that we have to add 3% additional bank fees to all credit card payments.

Since we are in in the 21st century we do accept PayPal payments, google pay, apple pay but of course also the old fashioned cash and bank transfers.

You won’t find dogs on Gili Meno or any other of the Gilis. Much to the delight of the cat population, dogs are not permitted on either of the islands.

In the village and around you will find chickens, goats and cats roam around as well as grazing cows in the shade of coconut trees.

Geckos are endemic in Indonesia and you will see and hear them in and around pretty much everywhere. Geckos are small lizards and they are totally harmless.

Against rumors, Gili Meno is NOT mosquito island. The beautiful lake on the island consists of brackish water and is not suitable for mosquito reproduction. Gili Meno has the same number of mosquitoes as Gili Air and Gili T do:  a usual amount for a tropical island. They become active in the twilight hours. Light and long clothing helps, so does mosquito repellent which is available as coils, spray, stickers or bracelets.

Divine Divers has a 4.8 star traveler rating

BY BOAT FROM BALI

 

FAST BOATS

 

The Gilis (and Lombok) are serviced by many fast boats from Bali. Speedboats depart from Padang Bai (East Bali), Nusa Penida/Nusa Lembongan and Serangan (South Bali near Sanur). Some fast boat companies will pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to the departure harbor. Most companies offer various departures per day – one leaving in the morning and one around lunchtime.

The crossing time depends highly on the season and therewith on the weather and conditions. It usually takes 1,5 to 2 hours but it can also take longer during rainy season. Eka Jaya has a speed boat directly to Gili Meno. Tickets can either be booked at one of the many tour agencies (don’t forget to negotiate the price) or directly https://baliekajaya.com.


The fast boat will take you to the harbour of Gili Meno. This will take you to Meno harbor. From there you can either walk to Divine Divers on the opposite side of the island (about 20 minutes, not recommended with luggage) or you can take a horse card.


Since we are located in the west of Gili Meno, we recommend to take any fast boat from any port in Bali to Gili Trawangan. You can book that online or in a travel agency (there is one on every corner in Bali) or even the hotel you are staying at. 


From Gili T you charter a private boat to Gili Meno which will take about 5minutes and costs around 250.000-300.000 IDR. The private charters drop you in front of our sandy door step. 


We can also help you with arranging a captain from Meno for a fixed price of 250.000 IDR. Just let us know if you need the phone numbers of trusted captains. 


Instead of the private charter, you could also take the island hopper. There is a speedboat hopper (hourly) for 85.000 pp and a slow boat hopper for 45.000 pp  (one in the morning, one in the afternoon). However, all hoppers drop you at Meno harbour. From there you either have to walk or take a horse card. 

 

ON A BUDGET

 

Are you a very seasoned traveller who doesn’t mind some long (and potentially painful) journeys? Are you on a budget and would like to travel like many of the locals do? 


Then the public ferry might be an option for you. Ferries leave almost hourly 24/7 and you can get tickets at the ticket counter at the harbor in Padangbai.

Even though the crossing time is only about 4 hours, expect this journey to take the entire day (or longer). The ferry lands in Lembar in West Lombok. From there you can change to public transit to make your way to Bangsal and the Gilis. 


Please only approach this trip if the journey is your destinations. It’s a cool experience but it doesn’t get you to the Gili Islands fast.

BY BOAT FROM LOMBOK


PUBLIC BOAT


Bangsal harbor in North West Lombok is the main getaway to the Gili Islands. The public ferries to the islands are very cheap and the trip takes 20 to 30 minutes. Just make sure you purchase the ticket at the official ticket office to avoid overcharging by some local touts. Scheduled times are 09:00, 11.00, 14:00 and 17:00 for the slow boat. 

There are also hourly speedboats that leave Bangsal to Gili Meno via Gili Air. At the time of writing the price for this is 85.000 IDR per person. Travel time is also 20 to 25 minutes.

All public boats will take you to Gili Meno harbor from where you can either walk (approx. 20 minutes, not recommended with heavy luggage) or take a horse card to Divine Divers.

 

SPEED BOAT

 

Should you miss the last public boat or public boats are not really your thing then it is also an option to charter a private (speed) boat at both Bangsal and Teluk Nara. Let us know if you need help with prebooking this service. Please be aware, that we can’t just pull a speedboat out of a hat and need some time to arrange a speedboat transfer.

 

If you are at least two people, the private (speed) boat option is actually the more convenient one since these boats can drop you off right in front of Divine Divers (tide permitting). 

BY AIRPLANE

 

Lombok International Airport (LOP) is located in Southern Lombok and is the go-to airport for domestic and international flights. From the airport it is a 1,5 to 2 hour drive to either Bangsal or Teluk Nara from where you can catch a public (Bangsal – 20-30 minutes) or speed boat (Taluk Nara – 10 minutes) to Gili Meno.


Let us know if you’d like to book an airport transfer. We will gladly arrange pickup and speedboat transfer for you.

Alternatively, you can also take a taxi, Grab or Gojek and arrange your own transfer to the islands.

 

INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS

 

There are regular direct international flights from Kuala Lumpur and Singapore. The airport is serviced by more and more international airlines as well as known low-cost-carriers. 

 

Garuda connects Lombok to major destinations around the world with a stopover in Jakarta.

 

A Visa on Arrival is available at Lombok Airport. Please make sure you fill in the electronic customs declaration form before boarding your international flight.  

 

DOMESTIC FLIGHTS

 

Several flights a day connect Denpasar (DPS) in Bali to Lombok (LOP) and several airlines fly this route and vice versa. The flight time is approximately 25 minutes. You can book tickets online, at ticket agencies or at the domestic terminal in Denpasar.

 

But also other Indonesian airports (Yogyakarta, Sumbawa, Bima, Surabaya) have daily flights to Lombok. 

 

Garuda connects Lombok to the rest of the world with a brief stopover in Jakarta.

GETTING AROUND AND BETWEEN

 

 

It is easy to find Divine Divers on Gili Meno. We are located on the most beautiful sunset beach almost opposite the harbour. Just follow the path through the center of the island for about 20 minutes (ok, it is a bit of a maze, best use google maps), hire a cidomo (horse card) or rent a bike. 

 

To reach Gili Meno from the other Gilis or Lombok simply jump on one of the island hoppers hire a local boat. This enables you to be dropped off directly on our beach. 

To get to Lombok, Gili Trawangan or Gili Air is also easy. You either charter a local boat or take the island hopper which is available twice per day for a bit of pocket money. Since times could be changing, best check with us, your hotel or at the harbor for the most up to date time table. 

 

 

Despite the fact that the islands are only a few hundred meters apart, and appear to be swimmable, DO NOT attempt to swim between them, the currents are deceptively strong, and a number of people have died trying. 

 

Currents are usually no problem when snorkelling close to the shore, but further out you can get swept away.

THE GILI ISLANDS

Looking for a perfect holiday paradise? Then look no further. With its white-sand beaches and coconut palm trees the Gili islands are just that vision of paradise. The three Gilis, namely, Gili Air, Gili Meno and Gili Trawangan are located off the north west coast of Lombok and are relatively easily accessible from both Lombok and Bali. 


Each island has its distinct personality. What they have in common is some of the best snorkeling and diving possibilities in the region and you’ll forever be surrounded by the key element that makes the Gilis Islands an unbeaten tropical paradise.


Gili Trawangan is the biggest one of the three. It has earned itself a reputation of a party island but has drawn in a more upmarket crowd in the past few years. Once a backpacker paradise with simple beach bars and huts the old party goers have settled down and many have chosen Gili T to raise their children. Families and travelers who are seeking the tropical island experience with the luxuries from home now often flock to the beaches. Once the sun sets on Trawangan you’ll realize it is still there, Gili T, the partygoers paradise. The social atmosphere is a massive draw and each night of the week another club or bar hosts a party.

Gili Air is located closest to Lombok and has without doubt the best sunrise view over Mount Rinjani. There is a wide range of accommodation on the island and food options are also quite varied. Gili Air is a quieter version of Gili T and eager party animals should aim for full moon to enjoy a wild night out. Gili Air is certainly more tranquil and its character is a blend of Meno and Tranwangan. If you are after beaches and the Gilis from 20 years ago, aim for Meno. 

Gili Meno

Gili Meno is known for its relaxed and serene beauty away from the other two island’s. The smallest and quietest of the three Gilis, Meno arguably has the best beaches of the lot – imagine white sand scattered with palm trees, fringed with crystal clear water. 

Gili Meno has a population of only about 300 locals. The interior of the island is mostly palm trees surrounded by grass which is kept neat by cows grazing lazily in the shade. 

The main village is located on the eastern side of Gili Meno where you will also find the the tiny harbour alongside some accommodation, shops and several doctor’s clinics. 

Sunset Beach, on the northwest side of Meno, is where your Gili Meno dive center Divine Divers is based. The scenery is more tranquil and most visitors consider it the best part of the island. 

In general, there are great seafood restaurants, hotels and guesthouses that cater to all budgets scattered about here and there. You’ll find life music in some of the lovely beach bars but Gili Meno is by far the most laid back of the three. If you are longing for busy nightlife you’re only a few minutes’ boat ride from Gili Air and Gili Trawangan, both boasting nice beaches and a huge array of accommodation, restaurants, and entertainment.



Also, Gili Meno has amazing snorkeling spots such as the famous “Bask Nest” which is an underwater sculpture with 48 life-sized human figures made by the artist Jason deCaires Taylor.

Not far from Divine Divers in the south east of the island you’ll find a turtle nursery, where locals are taking care of baby turtles until they are 8 months old. At this age, they are big enough to be released into the sea. You can support them financially but also help them to feed the turtles. 

The fact that there are no cars on the island highlights its relaxed pace of life; Motorized vehicles are not allowed on the island. The only means of transportation are horse-carts and pushbikes. Apart from scuba diving or snorkeling in its crystal-clear waters, there is not much else to do other than lounging on its glorious and secluded beaches.
