Just east of its more popular sibling, Bali, Lombok is relatively untouched by mass tourism and offers isolated stretches of paradise, ease of access, and raw natural beauty. Mount Rinjani, the second highest volcano in Indonesia, can be summited by means of a strenuous hike – those who reach the top can indulge in a refreshing dip in the dazzling crater lake or a relaxing soak in the hot springs. Pick up a pearl from one of the local pearl farms as a memento of your trip. Enthralling and plentiful marine life provide stunning underwater scenes for diving.
