See the underwater statues
If you want to explore the underwater-world, Gili Meno is home to one of the most popular snorkel spots in the Gili Islands. The underwater statues are popular among tourists who want a cute holiday photo from there.
For that reason, plenty of snorkel tours visit these statues every day and it can get very crowded. But if you get a private boat or swim out to the statues from the shore, you can get them all to yourself. Make sure to go in the morning or the afternoon without all the other boats around.
That way you can see the statues in peace and get the perfect picture for your socials without other tourists crowding your frames.
Go scuba diving and explore Gili Meno’s diverse marine life on
Snorkeling in the Gili Islands is great. And you will be able to see the beautiful coral reefs and see plenty of turtles. But the best way to explore the ocean is by scuba diving so that is also worth considering.
