Foot protection
Bring water shoes for walking on rocky or coral-strewn beaches, especially at low tide.
Hydration and shade

Conservation Note
Corals are sensitive to warming and anchors; choose operators that use mooring buoys, practice no-touch snorkeling and promote reef-safe sunscreen.
Sekotong’s fishing villages have long used traditional jukung boats; the islands have remained lightly developed compared with Lombok’s northern Gilis.
