Sumbawa island

Sumbawa is a large island located to the east of Lombok island in Indonesia. There are no really great beaches. However, there are still a lot of good beaches. But it is worth to find their location in advance. Otherwise, if you visit random coastal areas, you will find just depressive views. Swimming in bikini is not possible in many villages due to the Islamic restrictions. So it is worth to book a good beachfront resort. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
