Gili Meno island

About

Gili Meno is the smallest of the three Gili Islands, and deliberately quiet. No nightlife, no crowds, just empty white beaches and water so clear you see coral from shore. The real draw is the underwater sculpture garden—unlike anything else in Southeast Asia—plus reef snorkeling steps from the beach and turtles that show up regularly. Walk the whole island in ninety minutes. The west coast has BASK resort if you want more comfort, but most people come here specifically to stop, not just slow down. Best for couples and anyone tired of the Gili Trawangan scene.
