Passeio de um dia pelas ilhas Kenawa, Paserang e Kambing em Lombok

Riyadi, our guide for this trip, showed us a small part of the beauty of the Sumbawa archipelago. We set off at 6:30 AM, arrived at the pier three hours later, and after an hour's boat ride, reached these three small islands, jewels of the sea. We effortlessly climbed to the top of two small hills, overlooking the entire Pacific Ocean. The path was a bit slippery due to sand, and the guide accompanied us throughout, providing assistance and protection. This route was so beautiful and secluded; imagine only a few tourists on the entire island, quiet and wonderful. The wind blew, listening to its sound, observing its form, and appreciating the dance of plants in nature. Those dancers were merely swaying green grasses, long and short, in patches and clumps, gently rocking in the wind as if slightly intoxicated. Strangely, no matter how volatile the weather on Lombok, the sky here marked a clear division. I arrived at a place of sunshine, beneath dark clouds, a rift of sunlight, a curtain of light where yin and yang met, and I stood on the sunny side. The opposite side of the sun was not darkness. Look, in this small area where light rain dripped, a heavy downpour was occurring a thousand meters away. Light cast down a curtain of light beams. Initially, the sun was bright, but then a haze rose nearby, signaling our departure (it would have been even better if it had been completely sunny). This was just a quiet glimpse of Sumbawa. Deep within Sumbawa, there are whale sharks to snorkel with, attracting countless divers. There are hidden lakes, and twin lakes like mirrors (saltwater and freshwater?) with narrow shores... Nature's winds, clouds, and water vapor become gentle and serene here. Thanks to the guide's service; he not only provided drinking water but even bought me a drink. This journey was beautiful and peaceful, off the beaten path, a hidden beauty unknown to many, a bird's-eye view. I hope more people can visit. All we could do in return was treat the guide to a KFC meal on the way back. The guide told me his child was ill, and I truly hope his child recovers soon. The guide also showed us a video of a whale shark tour he filmed for other clients. I imagine that one day in the future, I might extend my journey, step by step, exploring these hidden gems of Indonesia, from Bali to Lombok, to Sumbawa, to Komodo Island, and then to the ancient cloud villages. In Indonesia, you can find wealth, poverty, hidden wonders, light, shadow, color, tranquility, gentle giants, and honest, simple people. However, you will never find scarcity, ingratitude, or a calculating heart. Beautiful nature bestows agility upon living beings, simplicity upon life, and vitality. When ancient wisdom is with us, we forget the so-called "great significance of life and death in the invincible power of the God of War." Thanks to the guide's thoughtful service; he was humorous and witty, arranged everything well, provided climbing protection for guests, and seamlessly managed the transitions between cars, boats, and smaller boats. This long journey, involving driving, taking boats, and changing to smaller boats, was very tiring for the guide, as the round trip alone took six hours of travel. His efforts ensured our safe journey, and no matter how long this trip was, it was worth it. Although this trip was a bit expensive, it comes highly recommended.

My tour guide is Alex, he's such a friendly and helpful tour guide. My husband and I had so much fun!
