We spend 3 days around Kuta, in Lombok, Indonesia, enjoying giant waterfall hikes, empty beaches, hilltop cafes and our favourite sunset experience yet. Less than 1 hour from Bali, Lombok is Indonesias much lesser known destination so we look at what you can get up to over 3 days, if you want a more chilled break.
We visit Benang Stokel and Benang Kelambu Waterfall, Mawun Beach, Selong Belanak Beach, Bukit Merese, as well as exploring downtown Kuta itself. We finish with a travel guide for visitors such as using transport around the island, how much do things cost, and if you need to be on alert for being scammed!
