Kuta Lombok

A steady 1 hour 45 minutes drive from Mataram will take you to the south coast of Lombok where the village and resort area of Kuta is situated. One of Indonesia's most stunning beaches with wide stretches of deserted sand beach, crystal-clear waters and picturesque out crops of rock. And with its superb surf breaks, Kuta is one of the most popular surf areas of Lombok.

Passing through several small Sasak villages on the way to Kuta, one gets the chance to see how traditional hand made Sasak pottery and handicraft is made and the opportunity to shop for a bargain or two.
