The Secret Gilis

Known as the “Secret Gilis,” Gili Nanggu, Gili Kedis, Gili Sudak, and Gili Asahan offer a quieter island experience compared to the main Gili trio.

These small islands boast clear waters, pristine beaches, and a peaceful atmosphere. There are a few small boutique hotels, but otherwise, the whole place is natural and totally unspoilt.

If you’re looking for an off-the-beaten-path mini-island escape, I can personally recommend Gili Asahan. My partner took me here as a surprise trip for my birthday last year and it was magical.
