BAHIA Restaurant & Beachbar - Gili Air

BAHIA Restaurant & Beachbar is a beachfront dining venue on the east coast of Gili Air, in Gili Indah, North Lombok. Set beside a snorkeling area, the restaurant and bar look across the sea towards Lombok’s volcanic mountain range. The setting suits slow daytime meals, drinks by the shore and dinners that continue into the evening.

The menu centres on locally inspired cuisine, with a beachfront barbecue as part of the dining offer. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all part of the venue’s all-day format, allowing guests to visit for a morning meal, a long afternoon at the beach or an evening gathering. The food style reflects the island setting while keeping the focus on relaxed, casual dining.

Drinks include signature tropical cocktails and mocktails. The beachbar atmosphere is informal, with no dress code and a barefoot approach that fits Gili Air’s easygoing character. Bahia combines a casual island mood with elements of barefoot luxury, creating a setting for couples, friends and solo diners who want food and drinks close to the water.

Daytime visits can include lounging between swims and meals, while evenings bring a darker, more social atmosphere beneath the open sky. The venue also presents itself as a place for shared dinners and late-night dancing, giving it a broader role than a quick beach stop. Its location makes it suitable for combining snorkeling, time by the sea and a meal in one part of the island.

For visitors exploring Lombok and the Gilis, Bahia offers a straightforward beachfront option with local influences, barbecue, tropical drinks and views over the water. The relaxed walk-in style means the venue works for spontaneous plans as well as unhurried meals arranged around a day on Gili Air.
