Spend a full day on the water exploring Lombok's east-coast pink beaches and nearby snorkel islets. Hotel pickup in Mataram or Lombok starts a relaxed boat circuit of sandbanks, coral gardens and the distinctive pink shoreline at Tangsi and Segui.
After hotel pickup you board for a full-day boat itinerary that links tidal sandbanks, clear-water snorkel spots and the pink beaches that give this coastline its name. Stops typically include Gili Pasir, the reefs around Gili Petelu and Gili Gambir, Tangsi Beach (Pink Beach), and quieter Segui Beach, with time in the water and on shore shaped by tide and visibility.
The day is paced for swimming, snorkelling and beach time rather than rushing between photo stops, so first-timers and confident swimmers alike can settle into each site with crew guidance.
East Lombok faces open sea and quieter shoreline than the northwest tourist hubs, with hills behind Tangsi Beach and long stretches of sand that take on a pink tone when light hits red algae mixed into the grains. The nearby islets are small and mostly uninhabited, which keeps the water clear when conditions are calm.
Working from Mataram or the wider Lombok hotel zone makes it easy to reach Bangsal-side roads and the east-coast boat routes without needing to base yourself on the Gilis first.
You should be comfortable swimming or floating in open water with a mask and snorkel. No prior snorkelling experience is required, and the crew can help with kit fitting and water entry at each stop.
Guests of all ages are welcome when minors are supervised by a parent or guardian. Infants sit on a lap on the boat. If you are unsure about swimming confidence, ask the team before you book.
Local crews know how tides change Gili Pasir and when the pink sand at Tangsi and Segui shows best, so the order of stops can flex with the day rather than sticking to a rigid checklist.
Snorkel kit is provided and hotel pickup is included within the usual Lombok pickup area, so you can focus on the water and beaches instead of arranging separate transfers and gear.
Meet your driver at the confirmed hotel collection time in Mataram or the wider Lombok pickup area. After a short welcome, you travel to the boat departure point ready for a full day on the east coast.
When the tide is low, Gili Pasir appears as a small uninhabited sandbank rising from the sea. Walk the temporary shoreline, take photos and enjoy the open-water setting before the sand disappears again as the tide returns.
These islets sit just before the pink beach area and are known for clear water, coral and reef fish such as clownfish and butterflyfish. Enter the water with crew guidance and take time over the gardens while visibility allows.
Come ashore at Tangsi Beach, framed by surrounding hills and a stretch of unspoiled shoreline. Explore the sand, learn a little of the area's wartime history if the crew shares it, and enjoy the quieter east-coast atmosphere.
Finish with time at Segui Beach, where the sand can look pinkish when waves dampen grains mixed with red algae, especially in softer morning or evening light. Fewer visitors reach this stretch, so it often feels more private before the return transfer.
This trip includes hotel pickup in Mataram and the wider Lombok pickup area. Share your hotel name and address when asked after booking so the crew can confirm collection time and whether your stay sits inside the free pickup zone.
Be ready in hotel reception a few minutes before the confirmed time. If you are staying outside the usual area, ask the team before you book so they can advise on transfer options.
No. The day suits beginners as well as guests who already snorkel. The crew helps with mask fitting and a clear briefing before you enter the water.
Basic comfort in open water matters most. Stay close to the boat if you prefer a gentler pace at each stop.
You are collected from your hotel in Mataram or the designated Lombok pickup area. Exact timing depends on where you are staying.
Confirm your hotel name and address after booking so the team can plan the pickup route for your departure.
Tangsi Beach and Segui Beach are known for pink tones created when red algae mix with the sand and catch the light, especially when the shore is damp.
Colour intensity varies with weather, tide and time of day, so each visit can look a little different.
The usual circuit includes Gili Pasir when the tide allows, plus reef time around Gili Petelu and Gili Gambir, known for clear water and colourful fish.
Stop order can change if wind or visibility is better elsewhere. The crew will explain the plan on the day.
Lunch is not listed as part of this itinerary. Plan to bring snacks or budget for food and drinks separately if you want something between stops.
If you have dietary needs for anything you bring yourself, pack accordingly and stay hydrated on the boat throughout the day.
Pack a swimsuit, towel, reef-safe sunscreen, hat and a light layer for the boat. A reusable bottle is useful between stops.
Snorkel kit is provided, so you do not need your own mask and fins unless you prefer personal gear.
Guests of all ages are welcome when minors are supervised by a parent or guardian. Infants must sit on laps on the boat.
Children joining should still be comfortable around water. Ask the team before you book if you are unsure about younger travellers.
Group size is capped at 15 guests for this boat day. Exact numbers vary by departure depending on who has booked.
The format keeps the day social while still leaving room to move between snorkel and beach stops without feeling cramped.
East-coast boat days can be adjusted when wind or swell makes one stop less suitable. The team may change the order of sites or pause an outing if conditions are unsafe.
If weather affects your departure, the team will be in touch with the next steps for your booking.
Pickup is included within the designated Lombok and Mataram area used for this trip. Most central hotel stays fall inside that zone.
If your accommodation is farther out, ask the team before you book so they can confirm whether an extra transfer fee applies.
About the centre
Mataram
Based on Lombok's northwest coast, this team specialises in boat-based snorkelling days around the Gili islands and the island's distinctive pink-sand beaches. Guests are collected from their hotel where possible, kit is provided, and the focus is on clear water, coral gardens, turtles, and unhurried time on and off the boat.
Trips run as shared or private outings depending on the product, with lunch included on the fuller Lombok sailing and island days. The same local crews cover Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno, and Gili Air snorkel stops as well as east-coast pink beach itineraries, so first-timers and confident swimmers alike can pick a pace that suits them.
