Gili Islands to Nusa Lembongan Destination Reviews

ND
Was punctual. But no air conditioning and because that the boat is small it feel like riding jet ski.

Horrible!! Semaya one boat was very poor and the boat was hold together with rope.... Also the staff made terrible jokes. Lost entire day and trip should have last only 3 three hours. Will never go with Semaya one ever again. This boat should be illegal!! Next time I will swim, it's more comfortable and will take the same time...

Bad doesn’t even cover how awful this service was. Rude staff - tried to not let us on the boat saying the boat was full even though we had tickets. They also

The departure hour on the web site is not accurate. It was supposed to be 12:15 pm and the reality was 1:30pm. Then no sense of security when you have to go on the boat. We had to jump from the pier to go on the boat. Crazy if you have kids. No air conditioning nor fans so the temperature was very high inside the cabin. We have to wait at each harbour around 30 min so 3 hours delay in total.

The boat left 1,5 hours later, operator said it a wrong information on the agents homepage. Then we had several stops on other islands. 1 engine had to be fixed too, so the total travertime was about 5,5 hours! 3 hours more than predicted ion your website. Not recommend.

The boat was really old and had broken windows etc.. in nusa penida we had to switch on a little boat. It was for sure too small for 10!! people on it! Not every passenger had a safe place to sit. On the way to lembongan the motor had some problems. I was really scared! It was definitely one of the worst trips so far!

Travelling by ferry essentials

  • We do recommend buying your ferry tickets in advance, especially if your route is served by smaller vessels that offer a limited number of daily departures. To book in advance is of primary importance not only during the high season but off-season, too. Sometimes it is ok to show up at the pier and hop on the next ferry but remember that this is not possible for any destination, and you may end up waiting for hours for the next departure and to have to change your travel plans.
  • Shipping is highly dependent on weather conditions. It mostly refers to the open sea routes, e.g. between the destinations in the open sea and the coast as well as between the islands scattered in the sea. If the waves are high, even the islands which sit closest to the shore are often cut off from the continent – all vessels may be ordered to remain in the harbor. So do keep in mind that during stormy weather, delays and cancellations may occur. Strong winds and heavy rains may interfere with your sea journey, too. So take it into consideration while making your travel plans.
  • Very often, a more expensive fare means less time spent on board, though the difference in price also may be due to the different cabin classes. Always check how long your trip lasts – it may be worth paying extra to cut your travel time to an hour instead of three, right? Travel time can be crucial if you are prone to seasickness, so choosing the cheapest ferry ticket is not always a good idea.
  • Speedboats bring you to the destination in the shortest time possible, while fast catamarans are also a decent choice, often taking only slightly more time. On some routes, slower and sometimes overnight ships are available, proving a prudent option if you are ready to spend a night on board. It actually allows you to save some bucks in your pocket that you would have otherwise spent on a hotel room. Yet again – longer ferry trips are not for everyone.
  • If you are prone to seasickness, take medicine half an hour before you board your ferry, not when you have already started feeling nausea – this way it will not help. Opt for staying on the open deck with a fresh breeze blowing into your face wherever possible. On vessels with several decks, the lower one normally feels more stable, while the upper one often is more of a rock-n-roll type.
  • A rule of thumb, choose bigger and more stable car ferries or high-speed boats if you suffer from rough seas. The former feels very steady even when stormy, and the latter is fast. Avoid catamaran-like ferries as they ride the wave rather than cut through it – which means constant ups and downs, ups and downs, OMG. If you happen to choose a catamaran, do follow our recommendation above.
  • Ferry is often not the only way to travel between certain destinations. It is obviously more scenic but usually pricier and may take much longer than if opting for a flight or a bus ride. Before you go, check if your island destination is connected to the mainland with a bridge – many islands which are located close to the shore, in fact, are.
  • Always put on your life jacket. Regulations around the world differ greatly and, in some countries, are more relaxed than in others. Anyway, almost everywhere, passengers are supposed to wear their life vests. If you are not provided with one, do not hesitate to ask where they are located.
  • Note that piers at some destinations collect a special ‘pier fee’ from all arriving passengers. As a rule, this fee is not included in your ticket price and should be paid on arrival.
  • Reading other travellers’ reviews is the best way to get an idea of what to expect from your ferry trip. Do check their experience to get the most out of your sea journey.
