How To Get To Gili Islands to Celebrate New Years Eve 2024

Trip to Gili Islands on New Years Eve

Gili Islands are one of few places in the world that are isolated enough to be private and give you your own space to welcome New Years Eve 2024. Also, it is small enough to be explored only by bike or on foot. And it is popular enough to have the few modern amenities you need like electricity and an ATM.

Furthermore, it is all about:

  • tradition with locally made handicrafts
  • casual restaurants serving an endless array of fresh seafood
  • places to snorkel and go diving
  • powdery white
  • pristine beaches to walk along
  • places to stay from traditional accommodations to island suites

The Gili Islands are a great place to take you and your loved ones for a one of a kind vacation experience (also perfect for much needed alone time). Before planning your island getaway you’ll want to consider how to get to the Gili Island the most convenient way.

TRAVELING TIPS FOR DISCOVERING GILI ISLANDS

Getting to the Gili Islands requires water transport because they don’t have airstrips. The best way to get started is to arrive in Bali, which can be a fantastic place to stay and explore for a couple days and then catch one of the “fast boats” to the Gili Islands. This service has been running for about 7 years now and it has quickly become one of the most popular ways of getting to the Islands.

It is a convenient, direct way to arrive at your destination without stopping in between or having to transfer anywhere. These boats take about 2 and half hours to arrive to your destination and typically will cost about $70 dollars per person each way. There are other boat services that run from Bali as well but most aren’t as consistent and typically cost about the same amount.

Another fast way How to get to the Gili islands is flying into Lombok from Bali and then catching a ferry. There are frequent airline services available between the Bali’s airport in Denpasar and the Mataram airport in Lombok with flights taking around a half an hour. You can also hire a private boat to take you across which can be pricier but are typically much faster.

For an authentic Island experience travel like the locals. Off the eastern coast of Bali at Padangbai you can charter locally crafted boats to arrive at your destination. These boats take a bit longer (about 5 hours) but are an unforgettable way to travel and experience the surroundings Island style; just be sure to pack sunscreen and snacks.

There are several ways on how get to the Gili Islands so make sure to plan your trip efficiently, get your reservations booked and enjoy some much needed rest and relaxation in paradise.
