How to Get to Nusa Lembongan from Bali

Nusa Lembongan is a small island paradise located just off the southeast coast of Bali, famous for its crystal clear waters, white sandy beaches, and laid-back atmosphere. The most popular and easiest way to get to Nusa Lembongan is by fast boat from Sanur.

From Sanur Beach, visitors can find several boat operators, but two of the most popular choices among travelers are Setia Fast Ferry and Rocky Fast Cruise.

• Setia Fast Ferry – known for its on-time departures, comfortable seating, and friendly crew.

• Rocky Fast Cruise – a favorite for its efficient service, helpful staff, and smooth check-in process.

Both fast boats take around 30–40 minutes to reach Nusa Lembongan, offering passengers beautiful ocean views and refreshing sea breezes along the way.

When you arrive, the boat will dock directly on the beach, so be prepared to get your feet a little wet. One of the main arrival points is Jungutbatu, a charming coastal village that serves as the island’s tourism hub.
