In search of empty line ups, turquoise blue water and white sand beaches, we decided to take the long way. The long way, took us by way of Lombok and we definitely were not complaining. A tropical paradise with its deep blue oceans and jungle-clad vistas, Lombok was an oasis of fun waves, good laughs and even better food.
We decided to head to Lombok because Bali was having one of it's moments, where swell direction wasn't right, winds were too strong and the crowds were unbearable. Also, we wanted some fun right handers...a rare commodity in Bali.

We took off during Ramadan, which had it's pros and cons....but mainly cons. Cons being - everything happens at a much sower pace because many businesses are closed & yet Bali is packed to capacity with tourists and traffic. On a semi impulsive decision, we opted for the overnight local ferry to Lombok instead of flying because we wanted flexibility to explore the deserted coastline.
Little did we know that our impulsive decision would be one of our worst ones.
What should have been a 6-7 hour trip, door to door, turned into a 12+ hour trip. 1 hour turned 2, turned to 3 hours simply waiting to board the ferry at Padang Bai. Squeezed between precariously overloaded trucks, we finally boarded around 1:30am. Grabbing some questionable mattress from the crew, we hauled ass up to the roof of the ferry and quickly fell asleep to the rumble of the engine and smell of diesel fuel.
Foolishly hoping to catch a sunrise surf season in Lombok, we woke to realize we were sitting heavy in the Port of Lembar and waited patiently for our ferry's turn to dock.

But the long trip, was totally worth it. Our days spent in Lombok were filled with long drives on dirt roads, new experiences and undiscovered views. Compared to Bali's humid, lush, tropical landscapes, Lombok's was relatively dry & barren, with vast empty spaces and bare panoramic views. With our car and small boats, we scored secluded, beautiful and unusual spots to surf, protected from the wind, with clear waters and right-hand point breaks.

Sunburnt and with bellies aching from laughing too much, we reluctantly headed back to the hustle and bustle of Bali, but knew we would soon return to Lombok for some more of it's unique beauty and charm.

I couldn't love the Rita top more! It's provide the perfect amount of support (I wear a 34C) and looks really cute on too.
This bikini set has quickly become my favorite. It's the perfect blend of style and function. I love that when I travel, I only have to take one bikini because it covers everything - perfect for sunbathing and chilling and stays in place when I'm surfing - done and done!
The Ami one piece style provides the perfect amount of coverage and support, making it a best choice for activities such as swimming, sunbathing, surfing or chasing kid on the beach! Overall, the Ami one piece is a great choice for anyone looking for a swimsuit that combines both style and function.
This black one piece really has it all, it’s comfortable, flattering and stays on even in the ocean. Never have to worry about a slip again. Perfect booty coverage as well!!
I look better in this suit than I expected/hoped. Compliments from friends are overwhelming haha. Love the back design and the material! So lux and soft and I keep touching myself hahaha. Would love to get different colors if there ever will be 🤍
I love the color and fit of these leggings! The material is soft and I felt super comfortable training in it at the gym. I can't wait to give it a try for yoga! I would recommend these leggings paired with the Isa Sports Bra. Such a gorgeous set!
Sometimes I have nowhere to put my phone when I'm at the gym and I must say this top took that stress away! Its back interior pocket is super useful and I'm able to train without having to worry about my phone falling out. I also LOVE the unique color and soft material. It looks awesome when paired with the Mahogany Hustle leggings!
I love the material and color! I feel confident surfing and swimming in it even though it is just a hair small for me but I have always had a hard time finding sizes. Love it! Would definitely recommend this brand to friends
I love everything about the Lucky bottom (and the matching Eden top). I spent a long time searching for a bikini that stays *on* while surfing and this definitely meets that standard. It's also super comfortable and just slips on. The high waist and full coverage bottom are not only feminine and flattering but add a touch of modesty, which I truly appreciate as someone who seeks out more coverage in my surf and swimwear. Definitely my go-to bikini when it comes to surfing. Also, the Plum colour is LIFE! :)
I used it just for swimming on the ocean and jumping off places and is very comfy, stays on its place at all times. The fabric is of good quality and soft to the touch.
Also it seems that as long as you take care of it it won’t become loose.
I love this bikini top! Is so comfy that I even use it as a bra! I rrlove the color green as well! It fits perfectly!
I love this top - stays put, comfortable, seems like it will last.
I feel so elegant and put together in it. Bonus, it stays put for trying out new sports on boards... like wing surfing! I usually wear a size small in most outdoor activewear, but based on the reviews and models measurements I decided to go with M. It was a good choice, but the small may have also worked! I am 5'5" 125lbs, 34 bust, 28 waist, 37 hips.
Great colors and definitely quality material! The cut is super cute, but is for those with small torsos and larger bottom--like an hourglass figure--so take into consideration with sizing. I'm usually a small, but am returning because I would need a medium (5'5", ~130lbs, but I have a straight figure--bottoms fit great, but too small in waist and shoulders).
Love this top. It's light weight and soft. I wish the other colors and prints were in stock- I'd buy another one.
