Discover the authentic side of Lombok through a real traditional sea fishing experience, guided by a local fisherman and departing directly from Bangsal Harbor. This is not a tourist-style fishing tour—it’s a genuine journey into local fishing culture, where you fish the same way locals have for generations.

Designed to be calm, educational, and personal, this experience offers a deeper connection to Lombok’s coastal life and the rhythm of the sea.

The Story of the Experience

Your journey begins at Bangsal Harbor, where traditional wooden fishing boats line the shore and local fishermen prepare for the day. Here, you’ll meet your guide—a local fisherman whose knowledge of the sea has been passed down through generations.

As the boat leaves the harbor, Lombok’s coastline slowly unfolds. During this 5-hour trip, you’ll explore productive fishing areas around North Lombok and the waters near the Gili Islands, guided by someone who understands tides, seasons, and sea conditions intuitively.

You’ll learn how locals choose bait, read the movement of the water, and fish efficiently using simple yet effective traditional methods such as:

  • Handline fishing

  • Bottom fishing

  • Light trolling

The techniques used will depend on the weather and sea conditions on the day of the trip.

The experience takes place on a traditional local fishing boat, offering a relaxed and scenic journey. Along the way, enjoy fresh sea air, open ocean views, and the peaceful pace of fishing life—far from crowds and commercial tours.
