What to expect
You'll arrive at Padang Bai harbour with your e-ticket, show it at check-in, and board a modern speedboat with proper safety gear. The crossing is direct with minimal stops, taking you across open water to your chosen island. Seas can be choppy depending on conditions, so expect motion and spray. The cabin is ventilated but compact. Once at your destination, you'll disembark at the harbour and make your own way onward.
