By car
Renting a car is also an option and there are many places to rent from in the Senggigi area. Expect to pay Rp 150,000-Rp 175,000 low end mid-late 1980s Suzuki mini jeep-Jimmy (2x4 to Rp 450,000 for a late model Toyota Kijang 2x4. Check over the vehicle very carefully before signing the rental agreement.
By Ojek
Prices are negotiable but a rule of thumb is Rp 5,000 if the destination is nearby.
By bike
Traffic is relatively light throughout the island so travel by bicycle is quite possible and provides a very different cultural experience to other means of transport. Some of the hotels have bicycles available and Senggigi has a bicycle tour operator.
By ship
Traditional fishing boats known as perahu ply the waters around Lombok. They are instantly recognisable due to their outriggers, two lengths of extra large bamboo sealed at either end and attached by bars on both sides like a catamaran affording greater stability in heavy swells. They can also be chartered on the Senggigi beaches, either directly from owners in which case some knowledge of Bahasa Indonesian or Bahasa Sasak will come in handy or via any travel agent, who will of course take an often generous commission.
