Nusa Penida to Gili Trawangan Destination Reviews

I think maybe we had a calm day because this trip was completely smooth sailing for us. We sat up top just behind the captain and had a beer and a boogy to the music. Thank you for ride 😀

Just rating great cause boat was on time 10:30-12:30 No aircon of course all companies are lying. But the air from windows was OK. I had a good nap during the trip. Rude staff yell at me on the top deck cause I had my bag while wanting to smoke a ciggy.

The trip was way better than I thought! I have a super safe trip with Wanderlust! One of the best fast boat operator so far. The staff at Nusa Penida and boat was very welcome, kind and very helpful. This boat has no air con like Starfish but plenty of air flowing through the boat and you could go up to the top deck if you wished. For people who have sea sickness, don't worry, they will give you dymenhidrinate/dramamine, mint candy & water for free. Best!

We were boarding at 11 instead of deprating, then spent 30 mins in the boat waiting for another to come, overall 45 mins late to Gili Trawangan.

PS
No toilet on the boat. The boat was off schedule an hour late to depart and an hour late to arrive destination.

The ride was comfortable and on time. On board we got pills against travel sickness and a bottle of water.

I arrived 45 minutes early as recommended, showed my tickets, and the onboarding procedure from obtaining boarding permits, tagging baggage, and boarding at the port was smooth. The Lombok strait is known to get rough and we could see the other fastboats struggle in these choppy waters. EKA JAYA, however is the biggest of them all and hence the impact felt is minimal. Professional crew overall (baggage could have been handled better). Anyway, for the money, they are highly recommended for your trip to the Gili islands and back to Bali mainland.

We booked a ticket for 5 people and there were only 2 on the list. Had to discuss and phone for a long time until we could get on the ship. The staff at the counter were no help at all.

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.
