Walking
If you are staying in Gili Air, you can walk to Turtle Point from any point on the island. Head towards the east side of the island, following the main path that runs parallel to the beach. Continue walking until you reach the area around J3VP+CWM. Turtle Point is located on the beach where you can spot turtles swimming. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring water, as it can be a warm walk.

Turtle Point is easily accessible by bike, and you can lock your bicycle at nearby locations while you enjoy the beach.
