Indonesia Island Hopper - Nusa & Gili Islands

Grab your bags, it’s time to go island hopping with your new Bali Girl Gang!

Think Bali 50 years ago as we head to our first islands of the trip, The Nusa Islands! 🌴 (pssst – these islands are home to undoubtedly the BEST beaches in Bali!). With white-sand beaches and crystal clear waters, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to visit these Islands whilst they still remain relatively untouched.

Our first stop is Nusa Lembongan which is our base for the next few days, we’ll drop our bags and head off on our first adventure (and to grab some brunch ofcourse!) We will be heading over the ICONIC yellow bridge to Nusa Ceningan – the smallest of the trio! First up we will head to the Blue Lagoon where we can grab some lunch & sit back and relax after a busy morning travelling. Next up we’re taking you to a secret beach where we can dip in the crystal clear waters 🤫

After a laidback afternoon with the girls it’s time to head back to Nusa Lembongan.

Just before dinner it’s time to tick off our first island sunset together as we will head to the most beautiful sunset spot on the island as we watch the waves crash up as the sun sets over the natural infinity pools at Devils Tear.

For dinner, we have the best spot on the island with some awesome live music as we celebrate the best first day in paradise with our new found besties!

BUCKETLIST MORNING INCOMING!!

It’s an early start today to go swim with the angels of the sea – the majestic Manta Rays. These friendly gentle giants will have you in awe as they glide through the oceans (like angels) also don’t worry they are completely harmless, yes they’re BIG but trust us, they really are gentle giants.

After a morning mermaiding or mermaning in the ocean it’s time to head to the iconic Nusa Penida! A quick lunch stop with an infinity pool overlooking the islands before heading off on our Nusa Penida land tour visiting some of the most beautiful beaches in the world!

The famous dinosaur head beach – Kelingking beach will be our first stop, next stop we’ll bask in the beauty of Broken Beach & Angels Billabong.

After a day of adventuring it’s time to head back and relax before our final dinner on this island, and wow have we got the best spot for it!

Drum roll please … you’ve probably heard the hype well guess what … it’s now your time to experience it! The most iconic island in Indo … Gili T we are coming for you! Cruise in style as we hop over to this tiny lil Lombok island by fast boat.

Once we arrive we can check in at our tropical island stay where we will be based for our last few days before spending the afternoon chilling by the pool, sunbathing under the palms or having a cheeky bintang or 2 (after all it’s beer o’clock somewhere right?)

After a pretty chill afternoon it’s time to board our luxury boat for our Sunset Cruise …. VIBE CHECK – sun going down, G&T in hand cruising round the Gili Islands with some your awesome new besties.

YEWWW! It’s TURTLE TIME! A highlight for many on the trip.

It’s an early start as we jump aboard our private boat to go island hopping and discover the magical underwater world the Gili Islands have to offer. We’ll dive into the crystal clear waters and visit the mystical underwater statues, swim with turtles and embrace our inner mermaids amongst the tropical fish and colourful corals. With a coffee stop and leisurely stroll along the coast of Gili Air before heading to the smallest island, Gili Meno where we can enjoy some much deserved chill time after a busy morning mermaiding.

As the sun goes down the Gili Nightlife ramps up and we will head out for our Solo Travel Girls BIG night out!

First up we’ll line the stomachs at the iconic Gili T Night Market, before hitting the strip for a spot of Beer Pong, live Reggae and dancing the night away.

We have kept this morning as a free morning for those nursing a sore head or maybe you wanted to try your hand at some other activities on the island? A spot of surfing or even some diving … our friendly guide can help to arrange any extra activities for you if you wish 🏄‍♀️

For the afternoon we’re heading to the other side of the island with our bicycles. Passing through the soaring palm groves and cycling through the untouched parts of the island as we head to Gili T’s number 1 beach club to sit back and relax.

After an afternoon relaxing we’ll head beachfront to enjoy an iconic Gili T sunset and meet our favourite local hand craft jewellery maker on the island (disclaimer alert – he hand makes the most amazing jewellery for us on the beach – so we apologise now if you go bankrupt after meeting him).

We promise you sunsets hit differently on this island! Grab a cocktail and enjoy🍸

Sadly today is our last day so… for those early birds to join our sunrise cycle around the island, a refreshing way to start the day whilst seeing the beauty of the whole islands or if you prefer take a slow morning in paradise.

After an epic few days living the island life, it’s time to head back to Bali with a heart full of epic memories – Don’t forget to get one last group photo – and we hope to see you again 🙂
