Sea conditions right now
Rough seas are the main reason fast boats are delayed or cancelled. These estimates come from wave-height forecasts at each port. They're a guide, not a promise: the operator and the port authority decide on the day.
Based on published wave-height thresholds for fast boats and ferries in Indonesia. Not a guarantee. Always check with your operator before you travel.
Getting back to Bali
Most boats from Lembongan go to Sanur, which is close to the airport and south Bali. If you have a flight the same day, leave plenty of time for traffic on the Bali side.
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.

Which Nusa Lembongan to Bali boats are confirmed?

Can the boat from Nusa Lembongan to Bali be cancelled?
Yes. Rough seas are the main reason fast boats are delayed or cancelled, and it happens more often in the wetter months (roughly November to March). The sea-conditions estimate on this page is a guide, not a guarantee: the operator and the port authority make the actual call on the day. Leave a buffer before any onward flight rather than booking one for the same day.
Do I need to book in advance?
In peak season, popular morning departures can sell out a day or two ahead. Off-peak you can often book closer to the day. Booking ahead is the safer choice if you have a flight or a connection to make.
