Travel Tips for Padang Bai to Lombok
- Arrive early: Get to the harbor at least 45 minutes before your boat leaves to allow time for check-in and boarding procedures.
- Luggage allowance: Most operators permit one large bag (up to 25 kg) plus a small carry-on.
- Hotel transfers: Shared or private pick-ups are usually available from major tourist areas like Canggu, Ubud, Seminyak, Sanur, and Kuta—request this when booking.
- Weather awareness: Sea conditions can impact sailing times, particularly during the wet season (Nov–March). Reconfirm with your operator the day before.
- Book ahead: Boats fill up fast in peak periods (June–Sept, Christmas, and local holidays), so it’s smart to book several days in advance.
