There is a common saying that Lombok is what Bali was 20 years ago. It is enriched with rugged landscape of unspoiled earth. Here, the island offers its virgin beaches, excellent for snorkeling and diving and the breath-taking Mt. Rinjani complemented with rural villages and waterfalls. Although the island has a majority of Moslems, many still maintain animist traditions with strong root to their ancestral culture, just like the Balinese people.
