We decided to get the public boat across to Gili Meno for the day. It was a busy boat and we sat on the top which made for an enjoyable boat experience with a very friendly guy who worked on there.
Gili Meno was a very different island in terms of development and tourism with not many people or buildings around. We walked in one direction where we saw lots of baby turtles before walking in the opposite direction and we found a cafe where we had a pancake with eggs for breakfast, but enjoyed easy access to the sea and nice swimming.
We decided to walk further around the island until we came across a hotel in the middle with sun loungers. We got a bintang each (very expensive!) and really enjoyed having a relaxing day on this island with some much needed peace and quiet. A contrast to Gili T! Annoyingly, a man who worked at the hotel came to send us off the sun loungers, the first unfriendly indonesian we came across! A day of doing not much, quickly vanished and we went to get the public boat back at around 4pm.
Our final night on the island we deciced to return for another pizza and have a post dinner drink at the reggae bar.Read more
