Based on published wave-height thresholds for fast boats and ferries in Indonesia. Not a guarantee. Always check with your operator before you travel.

Many boats to and from Nusa Lembongan land on the beach rather than at a pier, so you may step off into shallow water. Wear sandals and pack so your bag can be carried.
The times on this page are guides taken from the booking site. Check-in is usually an hour before departure, but go by the time on your ticket.
