ABOUT THE ISLAND

Gili Air is part of a group of 3 small islands off the coast of northwest Lombok.  These islands include; Gili Trawangan, Gili Air and Gili Meno.

Gili Air has the best of both worlds between the three Gili Islands offering travellers the tranquillity and peace they’d expect on a small island but with enough entertainment and establishments to make it fun while enjoying everyday comforts. 

 

The fast boat services from Bali to Gili Air depart from Serangan, Padang Bai and Amed in Bali. We suggest choosing your departure harbour based on your pick-up location. Blue Water Express, Eka Jaya and Gili Getaway depart from Serangan in South Bali, while Gili Gili, Eka Jaya and Blue Water Express offer Padang Bai departures (east Bali).
