Although Lombok is the neighbour of Bali, it is quite different.
Lombok is a small island around 80 x 80 square km. Dominated by the Rinjani peak, it's north-eastern part is dry. Good land for farming is only on the west coast and in central Lombok, while other areas are hilly and dry. The southern part near the beach is greatly hilly and has nice clean sandy beaches.
The Sasak who make 90 % of the total population of Lombok are all Moslem, while Balinese who mostly live on West-Lombok esp. in the capitol of Mataram are Hindu.
Senggigi, just west of Mataram city, is the most developed area of Lombok, especially from tourism. It has many accomodations from simple to 5* hotels located along a fine sandy beach. Various shops and restaurants are along the main road of Senggigi beach.

Love your photos and great tips. I'm going to Indonesia hopefully next year. So this particular island of Lombok, it's a diving island, I believe?
great page!
Nice page on Lombok. Though Indonesia is no longer on my list, Bali and Lombok are still in my dreams.
The name of the trees is Fiscus Benjamina, in Indonesian Language POHON BERINGIN,
Stunning photos and lots of useful info. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful island and pictures! I know the tree in your pic, but cannot remember its name, it is bugging me now too! A massage on the beach sounds like an excellent idea! Great page.
Oh yes, the Cook Islands were great - but I think Bali/Lombok will do too...! :o)
Wow! What a beautiful page and place I never heard of... Lovely pictures and interesting tips. Gini oops... Gili islands look great!
Weer zo'n prachtige pagina. Wij hebben ook goede herinneringen aan Lombok inclusief de Gilis.
Gini this is another beautiful page, it looks like a great place to visit that is for sure!!!!!!!!!!!
