Worth knowing: sea conditions vary by season
Roughly April to October tends to be drier with calmer seas — generally the more reliable window for fast boats. November to March brings the wet season, and rougher water means delays and cancellations are more common. Neither is a hard rule — check conditions closer to your trip.
Common questions
Do I need to book my ferry in advance?
For popular routes (Sanur or Padang Bai to Gili Trawangan) in peak season, yes — the busiest morning departures can sell out a day or two ahead. Off-peak or less-travelled routes are usually fine to book the day before, or even the same morning.
What happens if my boat gets cancelled?
Rough seas (most common in wet season, roughly November to March) are the usual cause. Operators typically rebook you onto their next available departure at no extra cost — but policies vary, so check the specific operator's terms before you pay.
Does IslandBounce sell tickets directly?
No. We compare the boats and send you to our booking site, run with our partner 12Go, where you pay. The price is the same as booking with 12Go directly.
