Tour Plan

Start at Gili Trawangan Turtle point

You will arrive at the meeting point where the nice crew is waiting to welcome you, and then an introduction to snorkeling safety.

This is a paradise for sea turtle lovers! At this spot, your guide will take you snorkeling in the waters where Green Sea Turtles and Hawksbill Turtles commonly feed. The chance to swim alongside these graceful creatures in their natural habitat is a truly unforgettable experience.

Gili Meno The underwater sculpture

This unique snorkeling spot features a series of submerged statues created by British artist Jason deCaires Taylor. The hauntingly beautiful sculptures, which depict human figures in various poses, have become a haven for marine life and are now covered with corals. You'll spot reef fish weaving through the statues, making this an ideal location for underwater photography

Gili Air Coral and fish garden

Heading towards Gili Air, the smallest and most relaxed of the Gili Islands. The first snorkeling spot here is Coral Garden, a shallow reef filled with healthy coral formations and schools of tropical fish. You will see a variety of hard and soft corals, as well as many species of colorful tropical fish such as Clownfish (Nemo), Parrotfish, and Butterflyfish.

Island pit stop Lunch break and relax

The boat will typically stop briefly at one of the islands (often Gili Meno or Gili Air) to give you a break. You can use this time to walk along the beach, purchase lunch, or simply enjoy the tranquil island atmosphere.
