Gili Trawangan: Best Place to Get Away From Bali's Crowded For Awhile

Another weekend trip! My friends and I went to another island last weekend called Gili Trawangan. This small island is actually near to Lombok (another famous island after Bali). There's another small island around called Gili Air. Same as Nusa Penida that there's 2 small islands around it cakled Nusa Lembongan and Ceningan. Click here if you want to read my Nusa Penida trip.

I'm based in Canggu and it takes around 25mins to get to the port/harbour. We need to take a boat that will take 2hours to go to Gili T. The port is called Serangan that is located in South Denpasar. It cost 34$/person.

The kids in Gili T are so cute. People that lives in Lombok, Gili T nad Air are mostly Muslim as you see on this pic that these kids wearing hijab. It is different like in Bali that people there are mostly Hindu. Indonesia is beautifulā¤šŸ¤

And... this is how it looks like at night... not many light on the road. We need to use our flashlight on our phone to lead us the way during the night. Not too scary, it was actually kinda fun especially when you're with friends.

And the next day we went snorkeling. Was actually my first time ever! I'm not a fan of water and not really could swim either. And I didn't expect it was actually really fun.

This is how the goat looks like. We booked the 'private boat' that cost 55$ for 4hours. We went to 3 different snorkeling spots.

Time for Chacha's rating!

Chacha rating:

A. Atmosphere 10/10
The view of mother nature will never dissapoint you. Beaches will never go wrong.

B. Romance 10/10
Honeymoon trip? Or even hot summer girl trip? Gili is the perfect place for that. Riding in bicycle with your partner and friends in an island would be an unforgetable moment.

C. Shut up and take my money 7.5/10
You'd find some stores like handicraft and souviner that handmade by locals or even clothing stores.

D. Location 8.5/10
Takes 2hours in a boat is def worth to visit I promise!

E. Chacha feed 7.5/10
The foods is okay to me personally. The seafood is fresh bc we are literally in an island duhh
