Kerangdangan Beach

On Sunday afternoons Kerangdangan beach is a popular destination for Lombok residents. They go there to wander about and socialise or sit on the sandy beach or grassy area behind the warungs. People often take a swim in the sea and later eat satay and other snacks made by Kerandangan villagers and sold in the beachfront warungs. There are also two small and more expensive venues with informal outdoor dining in a cluster of small barugas with big cushions and relaxed service. They are set a little back from the beach and are open most days and nights. Full menus are available at these two venues and they offer an interesting alternative to the Senggigi township offerings. Access to the area is not obvious and the number of beachside warungs has been reduced due to a large parcel of land being annexed for a new development. Look for an entrance toward the northern end of the bay.

Mangsit beach surfing

Surfing lessons for beginners and children, surfing trips, boat trips to the Gili islands, surfboard, snorkelling hire and a lot of entertainment. At night some of the same people often appear to be working as quite accomplished musicians and as waiters in the restaurant next to their daytime surfing operation.

Pura Batu Bolong

Small Hindu temple located in a scenic spot at a small headland overlooking Senggigi beach, named after a rock (batu) with a hole (bolong). At the tip of the headland is an empty chair representing Brahma, the Hindu God of Creation. Free entry, but you'll have to 'borrow' a sash (Rp 10,000 a throw) from one of the urchins if you don't have one already. Sunsets seen from here can be very impressive.

Senggigi Beach

A spit of sand stretching out from central Senggigi. This is Senggigi's raison d'etre but, by Indonesian standards, it's not all that spectacular. The beach is a sometimes a little dirty, the hawkers can be a nuisance and the Senggigi Beach Resort has grabbed most of the land. Some local surfers brave the smallish waves. The pathway around the peninsula can be a pleasant promenade. The sunsets can be very beautiful.

Square Restaurant and Lounge

The most expensive and most stylish restaurant in town. Serves contemporary fusion-style cooking in an airy and stylish upstairs terrace lounge overlooking the main road in the town centre. Dinner sets are a good value and offer good mixtures. Vegetarians may have to get creative to find something other than pasta, noodles and tomato sauce, but adaptions to standard dishes are possible. Pay for service WiFi is available.

Lunch, evening, open late·From around Rp 30,000

Sunshine Restaurant

This restaurant has local Chinese Indonesian owners and provides a Chinese focussed menu. Beachside tables are available for dining or drinks and the kitchen serves good value and capably prepared meals. Table service is sincere but at times can be a bit too relaxed if someone is in a hurry, though the kitchen is normally very efficient. It is often overlooked by visitors but offers good quality food in a pleasant atmosphere.

Warung Bamboo

Local style menu at modest local prices. BBQd fresh fish, squid and chicken, traditional local dishes, genuine fruit juices from fresh fruit, local musicians on some nights, very informal and laid back and an entirely local village operation. Cold beer is served.
