accessible both by air and sea. Since Lombok gain its popularity,
many airlines recently start flying to and/or from Mataram in
addition to the already existing state owned airlines, Merpati and
Garuda. Lombok is mostly reached by visitor from Bali as there are
so many connections from many countries. In spite of the connections

BALI TO LOMBOK BY SEA
Traveling by bus can be an unforgettable experience despite the time
and energy consuming. Air-conditioned executive buses are available
at Ubung Bus Station in Bali, some of which starts at around 4 or 5
in the afternoon. Taking a regular shuttle bus is also a possible
alternative to travel by bus to Lombok. Just inquire at any shuttle
ticket sales counter in places of interests like Kuta, Ubud, or
Sanur. However, traveling by public buses for such a long distance
is not recommended as the public buses constantly stop either to
drop off or pick up passengers along the way. Even if the bus is not
yet full, it might keep looping around the station or town looking
for more passengers. Taking a public bus in this case also will make
your time and schedule very unpredictable. Instead, self drive a
hired car from Bali and cross to Lombok by ferry is worthwhile
considering.
Public ferries depart every two hours for the sea voyage between
Padang Bai Harbor (Bali) and Lembar Harbor (Lombok). The crossing
between the island takes approximately 4 to 5 hours. One Way ticket
cost is US$ 3 per person. The cost for transporting motorbike is US$
9 including biker, and for a car is US$ 53.
Padang Bai harbor is approx. 1.5 hours by car from Kuta and South
Bali.Lembar Harbor is approx. 1 hour south of Senggigi, Lombok.
Arrange your own transfers and buy tickets direct from the harbor,
or use a reputable tour company to provide through service.
