Kuta, Lombok

Kuta was the perfect place for us to relax after the Mount Rinjani trek. We stayed here for just under 2 weeks and spent most of our time exploring the beautiful beaches sprawled along Lombok’s south coast. Our favorite beach was Mawun beach, it had gorgeous white sand and was always pretty quiet.

Kuta is the cheapest place we’ve stayed so far, we were comfortably living on less than £10 each a day. Another good reason to stay here for a while!

There is a lot of good surf around Lombok and after our first lesson in Nusa Lembongan we decided to give it another go.. this time without an instructor. The waves seemed to break quicker here and after a lot of nose diving into the waves, we eventually managed to stand up and ride a few waves!
