Labuhan Lombok
Skip as a destination: use Labuhan Lombok only as the ferry port to Sumbawa. One hour is enough to board; no reason to stay overnight.
Labuhan Lombok is a transit town on Lombok's east coast, best known for the Kayangan ferry port connecting to Sumbawa. There are no major sights, and most travellers pass through in under an hour. If you have time to kill, the nearby coast offers quiet beaches, but the town itself has little to offer beyond basic services.
