IMHO,if any location from the above list to be missed, is Gili islands unless you love turtle a lot.
Visited gili air on Nov 2021, more less same as years back. Not impressed me.
Skip the Gilis
Just out of curiosity what was wrong with the Gili's??
I have part time lived in Indonesia for several years now and majority of my diving is done there so I have done ALOT of diving in Indonesia (plus alot around the world) and Komodo, SE Sulawesi (for cave diving) Raja, and the Gili's are some of my most favorite places. So much so that I lived on the Gili's almost the entire year of 2020.
I know diving experience and sites are personal preference but IMO I still think Gili's is worth checking out. I really like it! Keeps me going back. Beautiful vertical walls and reefs. Some of my favorites sites are: Tunang, Donyeng, Pyramids, Tanga, Taman/Lindas, Corner Shop, Hyabusa Maru Wreck, Simon's
