I recommend visiting - Lombok, Indonesia
Largely in the shadow of its sister, Bali, the island of Lombok is 30 minutes away by air and often succeeds in giving visitors a quieter, more rural experience, while still offering a great variety of activities. For the adventurer, the active volcano Mount Rinjani offers challenging multi-day treks. For water-sport enthusiasts, Lombok offers easy access to Indonesia’s best snorkeling and diving, and for those simply wishing to relax on pristine beaches, the island has many stretches of powder-soft sand and turquoise water, and that’s before you ever begin to explore the many tiny islands off its coast.
