Booking Your Ticket
The first step to embark on this adventure is to book your tickets. You can easily do this online through trusted travel agencies, and we recommend baligilifastboat.com. You can make your payment online and receive a voucher for your crossing to Nusa Lembongan. They offer pickup services from your personal address or hotel if needed, or you can opt for a ‘ticket only’ option if you have your own transport to Sanur port. After completing the booking process and making the payment, you’ll receive a confirmation, usually in the form of a voucher.
Preparing for Departure
On the day of departure, leave early and aim to check in one hour before your ship departs. The road to Sanur Beach is often congested due to the large number of tourists heading to Nusa Penida or Lembongan through Sanur Port.
Check-In Process

Preparing for Departure
Upon arrival at Sanur, head to the fast boat office you booked with for check-in and registration. Usually, all boat companies have counters at Sunrise Beach or near the fast boat harbor in Sanur. After check-in, you’ll be given a boarding pass and clear instructions on the boarding process.
While You Wait
The area around Sanur has various eateries and food stalls. If you haven’t had breakfast, it’s a good idea to eat something to ensure a comfortable journey to Nusa Lembongan.
Boarding Time
When it’s time to enter the waiting area, make sure you do so according to the given schedule. Being late might result in missing your fast boat. Feel free to ask the staff in the waiting room to confirm the departure time of your boat.
Onboard Tips
Once instructed to board, find a comfortable seat inside the boat. Sitting towards the back can minimize the impact of sea waves, making the journey more comfortable. For safety reasons, it’s recommended to stay inside the boat and not sit at the back unless you have specific needs, like seasickness.
Arrival and Exploration
The sea journey will take about 30 minutes, although this can vary depending on the weather. Upon arrival at Nusa Lembongan, you can explore the island’s beauty by renting a motorbike directly at the port. Rates typically range from 75,000 to 100,000 per day. Use Google Maps to navigate to the exciting places on the island.
Final Note
You can pre-plan your itinerary before heading to Nusa Lembongan to make the most out of your trip.
