Gili Meno
1.5-2 hours by fast boat from BaliThe smallest and most tranquil of the three Gili islands, Gili Meno is a barefoot paradise that feels like a castaway dream — powdery white sand, impossibly clear water, and a blissful absence of crowds and nightlife. The island is home to a beloved turtle sanctuary where hatchlings are raised and released, and its surrounding waters offer some of the best snorkeling in the Gilis, including the hauntingly beautiful underwater NEST sculpture installation. With just a handful of rustic bungalows and beachfront restaurants, Gili Meno has earned its reputation as the ultimate honeymoon island, where the biggest decision of the day is whether to snorkel before or after your beachside massage. For travelers seeking genuine peace and pristine nature, Gili Meno delivers an unforgettable escape from the modern world.

Getting There
Fast boats from Bali (Padang Bai or Serangan) reach Gili Meno in approximately 1.5 to 2 hours. Gili Meno is typically the middle stop on the three-island boat route. You can also hop over from Gili Trawangan or Gili Air via the frequent public island-hopping boats that take just 10-15 minutes.
