Getting to Lombok by public ferry

The Islands; Bali and Lombok separated by Lombok Strait.
If you travel on a budget, public ferry is the alternative mode of transportation to reach Lombok. It departs from Padang Bai (East Bali) to Lembar (West Lombok). Ferry service departing every hour, operating 24 hours.

Public ferry - Bali To Lombok

Public ferries' provide services for both passengers and vehicles.
The trip normally takes four hours (but it can be considerably longer in poor weather). This service runs 24 hours a day. It should be understood that this ferry has a poor safety record.

Disembark from Padangbai or arriving at Lembar Harbor do not let a local porter take your bags/luggage unless you have negotiated absolutely what you will pay before he puts his hands on your bags.

Best to avoid the service completely if possible as it can be fraught with complications over prices.

While they are cheap, it can cost quite a bit extra to get to Padangbai so its worth comparing all alternatives.

Lembar in the south west of the island is Lombok's main port and handles small freighters, fishing boats and the combination vehicle and passenger ferries heading westward to Bali.

Padang Bai (also Padangbai and Padang Bay) is a small port town in East Bali, the port for ferry terminal from/to Lombok. Situated in Northeast of Gianyar 29 km, from Kuta 62 km, and from Denpasar 56 km. Padangbai can be reached from Sanur in more and less 1 hour.

Getting from Lembar Harbor

If you're arriving in Lembar and need transport, you'll find the Lembar bemo drivers hard bargainers.

If you want to be free from the hassles, you can call our office:
+62 817 369 010 (min. a day in advanced), or email us at: trekkingrinjani@gmail.com, so we can provide private transfer service and send our representative to meet you there with your name on his/her paging board. See our page for more info: Private Transfer (Point to Point)

Crossing By Public ferry (Bali-Lombok)

Slow Ferry from Bali to Lombok

The ferry takes 4-5 hours from Padang Bai on Bali and arrives at the port of Lembar 22km south of Mataram on Lombok. They leave every 90 minutes or so, 24 hours a day. This is by far the cheapest option to get across to the Gilis. Lots of Kuta travel agents will be able to help you with booking transport from your hotel in Bali to Padang Bai, the ferry ticket and transportation from Lembar to the Gilis.

 

Tips: If you are leaving from Lombok, chances are high that someone will approach you and offer the ticket to Bali for same or cheaper than going the current rate of Rp 36,000 (March 2011). They'll also try to move you past official ticket offices (at the entrance gates of the harbor). It may be cheaper, however, you won't get an official ticket, or get only second part of it (the first one normally goes to the security on the pier). So, you may end up without a valid ticket and, if some security check happens, may have to pay again and suffer a lot of confusion. Just buy the ticket at the official ticket booth.

Stay safe

The ferries used on the run between Lombok and Bali do not conform to many Internationally recognized safety and operational standards. It is prudent to keep alert and be aware of your position and situation whilst on board and make yourself aware of the positioning of life preserving equipment. If inside the main cabin or below decks try to ensure you orient yourself to the layout of the ships decks and emergency exits especially if traveling at night. You should maintain a clear head and use caution at all times when embarking and disembarking as the decks and ramps can be slippery and the passengers can at times behave in a chaotic manner especially when disembarking.

Be aware that heavy vehicles as well as cars and motorbikes are moving onto and off the ships at the dock and will using the same loading ramp as the passengers. Be careful to keep track of your bags and watch out for pick pockets if in a crowd waiting to board or disembark.
