Nusa Penida to Sanur Destination Reviews

It was really good experience to board the boat and the ferry was also good. From Nusa penida port it was amazing. The ferry was not on time but that's fine. Just few minutes late. You get the ferry easily and the cabs can drop you very close to port. We both had total 4 bags and that wasn't a problem at all till we reach Sanur Harbour. Problem starts after sanur port as the grab pick up is far but that's not the problem of the operator.

Boarding procedure was terrible. Pushing and shoving- just very unorganised. Boat was clean and fast despite leaving half an hour late. No aircon!

Semabu hills is very flixable and that made all the difference. Upon our return from Nusa Penida our faily split and some came back a day earlier that the ticket date and the semabu hills team at the port were super flexible and gave no problems. The rest of us went back on the date ordered however on a different hour and once again there were no issues at the cocunter.

Our driver over Nusa Penida was Kama. If you want to make the best possible photos at popular attractions he is #1! He was quickly taking us through crowds of people, putting at the best spots and making photos and videos like a professional. I would highly recommend him as your Driver

Contact is poor. Tried to change dates and it gave me no option to pick time and than gave me the wrong time and it took me a long time to get the correct time through communication

We booked the ferry via a google search hoping it was legit and it was. Upon arrival, even though you have an e-ticket, you must go to the Angkal vendor who will give you a lanyard and the paper ticket needed. They stored our luggage so we could grab some food as we had arrived early just in case. We then made our way to the terminal. If you have a big suitcase like we did, bear in mind the physicality of getting it up and down the ramp to the harbour. The speedboat ferry is actually a very smooth crossing. It’s a great transport link between Bali and Nusa Penida. I would recommend having a taxi waiting for you though there are many upon arrival. I would also recommend booking your ferry in advance at least 1 day. Would definitely use again.

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.
