If you're looking for the Instagram famous in-water swing, there's just one left on the island because the others got destroyed.

I've circled the Gili Trawangan island to find these swings and now I'm sharing them with you to explore! 👍🏻

1

Almarik swing

You think it's too low?

This swing can be found on the upper east side of Gili Trawangan. Although it is associated with Villa Almarik, it doesn't mean it's physically located at Villa Almarik itself.

It simply belongs to Villa Almarik. For the exact location, search for Almarik restaurant on Google Maps, or click the button below.

Sand bar swing

Not in the water but close

This specific swing is actually located at the Sandbar restaurant, which is super close to the jetty where you first arrive on the island.

Just walk 50 meters to the left and you'll find it.

Ponte bar swing

To clarify, this swing isn't in the water. It's actually situated on the sand. I just wasn't able to get the perfect angle.

It's located on the southeast side of the island, where people often party.

Ombak Sunset swing

It has lights on the floor which shine you up at night

This swing right here is the biggest one on the whole island. It's even larger than it looks in this picture.

I'm going to be honest, it's the most enjoyable swing I've ever experienced.

Le Pirate swing

They don't look great but they're the only ones left

Now, this is what many of you may have been searching for - the famous in-water swing!

It might be different from what you've seen on social media because there used to be multiple in-water swings, but unfortunately they got destroyed for some reason.

Today, this is the last remaining one that you can find on the island.
