About This Route

The Padang Bai to Lombok fast ferry is the shortest and most efficient sea crossing from Bali to Lombok. Departing from Padang Bai Harbour in East Bali, the Semaya One fast boat reaches Bangsal Harbour in North Lombok in just 2 hours — significantly faster than the 4–5 hour public car ferry to Lembar in the south.


Lombok is Bali's spectacular neighbour — an island of dramatic volcanic landscapes, pristine beaches, world-class surf breaks, and the majestic Mount Rinjani (Indonesia's second-highest volcano). The north coast, where the fast boat arrives, is the gateway to the Gili Islands, the popular resort area of Senggigi, and the traditional villages around Bayan and Senaru.


Padang Bai Harbour is approximately 1.5 hours from Ngurah Rai Airport, 1 hour from Ubud, and just 10 minutes from Candidasa. It's the ideal departure point for travellers exploring East Bali or coming from the Sidemen Valley. All BaliGoat tickets include harbour tax, luggage allowance, and instant e-ticket delivery.

Route Highlights

🏝️ Gili Islands Access

Bangsal Harbour is the main jumping-off point for the Gili Islands — just a 5-minute walk from the fast boat dock to the public boat pier.

🌋 Mount Rinjani

From Bangsal it's about 1.5 hours to Senaru, the main trailhead for Mount Rinjani treks and the stunning Sendang Gile waterfall.

🏖️ Senggigi Beach

Lombok's most famous beach resort is just 20 minutes south of Bangsal — perfect for sunset cocktails and laid-back beach days.

🏄 Kuta Lombok

World-class surf breaks and powdery white-sand beaches await about 2 hours south. A completely different vibe from Kuta Bali.

What's the difference between fast boat and public ferry?
The fast boat (Semaya One) takes 2 hours vs 4–5 hours on the public ferry. Fast boats are smaller, faster, air-conditioned, and more comfortable. The public ferry is cheaper (around Rp 50 000) but much slower and less reliable. Most tourists and travellers prefer the fast boat for comfort and time savings.
Can I take a scooter or car on the fast boat to Lombok?
