Workation in Gili Trawangan: the essentials
No cars run on Gili Trawangan, so bicycles and horse carts handle the traffic on the sandy track around this coral island off Lombok's northwest coast, about 3 km long. It is the busiest of the three Gilis and the one with the most foreign residents, concentrated in a strip along the east shore where dive schools, cafés, small coworking spots and loud bars line up. The north and west sides are much quieter. Everything has to come in by boat, and the water is largely desalinated. Reaching the mainland means a boat to Bangsal and a road transfer to Lombok International Airport, about 50 km away.

Gili Trawangan has one space, Tropica Co-Working, plus cafes and bungalows with Wi-Fi. The small island is more of a party and diving destination; internet is patchy and power cuts occur. Fine for short stays, but Bali is better for longer work.
