Snorcling
The most popular swimming seats with a mask and a tube are located along the eastern and northern coast of the island, between Alam Gili and Beachcomber. Visibility in these places exceptionally good coral placers are the richest. But still coral reefs off the coast of travganiza in most cases, alas, in a destroyed state. Yes, you will see the flocks of multicolored fish, but corals, unfortunately, no longer the ones that before. Of course, some regenerative and security work are held, but that corals have grown over, decades are required! In the meantime, the boatmen still cast an anchor instead of using buoys (if any), nothing does not bind to big hopes for the revival of the wondrous underwater garden.But snorkeling, of course, is still possible. At least in order to admire the turtles. They most often see, again, in the area of the northeast coast, approximately around Blue Star Bungalows. Just there the depth is gaining faster, and it attracts turtles. If you are lucky, you will see a couple! There is no need to drag with me a mask and flippers - all the necessary equipment can be leased in almost every corner of the island - from autonomous rentals to rentals in hotels (and in most). If you do not want to lease, buy in the store.
Trip to three islands on the boat
First of all, as a rule, go to the West, to the coast of the island of Gilieno, off the coast of which you can see corals with fish. True, and then the reefs are not in the best condition, but not yet cool that a similar tour is buys a lot of people, and boats follow the same route - the main places for snorkeling are a bit overloaded. The second stop is about 500 meters along the eastern coast of Gilieo Island. It is most likely to see the turtles, but with corals, again, trouble - to more or less preserved will have to be saved away. The last stop is made next to the southern end of the island of Gili-Air. Here you can see good corals and many fish. In principle, you can skip the first two stops and proceed to Gili-Air. A similar excursion starts, as a rule, approximately at 10 am and ends to 4 o'clock in the day (with dinner on Guili-Air). And yes, you promise that in the boat there will be no more than 20 people - in fact it can be twice as many people. If you want to go to a mini-tour with a smaller group, ask for a boat for 12 people. Most often, such an excursion costs about 75,000 rupees per person, with a mask and a tube. Grab the sunscreen and water.
Ride on the wagon around the island
Such a trip cannot be called particularly comfortable and cheap. But this is an interesting and unusual way to explore the island. A continuous trip around the travgana will take about 45 minutes, but much more interesting to make several stops and admire the beauty of nature. The initial price for the trip around the island is 150,000 rupees, but you can always bargain or dwell at the first price until it was raised at all.Walk around the island
Knowing people say that the island can be bypassed somewhere in an hour. Well, quite likely! But just a quick step. The best road runs along the east coast, and in the rest of the parts is a path, places the beach or some kind of impassive dirt. On the southern tip of the island, west of the wasteland, there is a staircase that leads to the highest point on the island. Types from there are extremely impressive, so, it is worth work hard and see to that part of the island. And yes, capture with you more drinking water, because on the west coast will have to overcome large segments of the way, where neither the bar, nor the restaurant, no store, will not meet anywhere.
Surfing
Follow the south, by Ko Ko Mo and Ombak Villas, then turn the left. Of course, the waves are not such as the shores of Bali or the island of Nusa Lemborgan, but it is here that the best sites for surfing on Gilie-Travangan. Better than nothing! Here you can rent the chalks for surfing, but the choice is not great - if you are picky, it is better to bring your own board with you.Turtle incubator
This amazing place is located on the northeast side of the island. Here in the aquariums live and grow different turtles, and information about them is presented on the signs. To what the little ones are small tortoise - they can even hold them on their hands! The incubator takes donations to the development of the center.
Night life
The most popular bar among tourists - "SAMA SAMA REGGAE BAR" (on Kundun Road, on the northeast side, next to Manta Dive & Bungalows): nice staff and good cocktails, good live music and simple atmosphere, and even adequate prices.
Another interesting bar - "The Jungle Pre-Drinking Bar" With Gili T Resort, not far from the pier. This bar has good prices and a very good atmosphere, many young people and, probably, the best dance music on the island. Plus, the magnificent views are open from the second floor, where the bar is placed. Bar "TIR NA NOG BAR" - Bright and very cheerful! It is located on the coast in the southeastern part of the island, next to the Hotel Scallywags Resort 3 *. Here they make the best mojito on the island, there are really friendly personnel and an excellent contingent.
Bar "Jiggy Jig's" Located at the main pier island. Here, drunken tourists play midnight in Bir-Pong, dance and go crazy.
Well, to relax after diving you can in a cute bar "Beautiful Life".
Yoga Center "The Yoga Place"
This center is located on JL. Ikan Pelatuk (Sunset Forest Road). Relatively new fun for tourists - but also very healthy, compared to the fact that the island offers more. As a rule, tourists buy whole yoga tours, for example, for 10 days. Yoga lessons are suitable and beginners, and experts, and young, and the elderly. Everyone feels in such classes rather at ease. You can also try the course of meditation - perhaps it is precisely in such an environment "go to Nirvana" is the easiest. Plus, in a batch tour you will be fed a very healthy food, which is important.
