The region is actually the largest Christian population in Indonesia (around 5 million people) so no worries about drinking. - You can bring your own bike, but you will have to enter the Island at Pangururan. I did see scooter sized motorbikes carried on the passenger ferries if you wanted to do that. - Western toilets are in all of the guest houses I saw and in the bars and restaurants. Hi Rick,
