About Tanis Lembongan Express

While some islands are now reachable by plane or are connected to the mainland with a bridge, ferries remain the only way to reach some of the most beautiful and amazing islands, hidden beaches, or other seaside destinations. Larger and slower car ferries carry vehicles and passengers around the world, but in certain cases, you will need to opt for a smaller yet faster express high speedboat or catamaran to reach your destination. While the latter does save you time, caution should be taken if you are prone to seasickness. When the sea is, rough high-speed boats which actually cut the waves are a better option than catamarans that ride the waves instead hence turning your journey into a rock-and-roll trip. To prevent or beat motion sickness, we recommend taking a special medication – consult your doctor prior to the journey. While on board, grab a seat on an open-air deck wherever possible.

Ferry trips offered by Tanis Lembongan Express can be booked online – in an easy and hassle-free manner, without wasting your time visiting the booking office.

Tanis Lembongan Express Ferry Types & Tickets Prices

High-speed fast ferries always hit the hardest on your pocket. If you need to save money, check whether some slower options are available on your route – usually the rates are much more affordable. It is a rule of thumb to check the length of the trip before booking. On longer routes, the difference in travel time can be huge. Note that not all ticket fares or classes are always available on any route. During peak seasons it is a good idea to make your booking in advance as the availability of more expensive private cabins is often limited. Opting for walk-in tickets on the most popular routes during these periods can result in long waiting queues. Some destinations have more than one pier or different piers for different ferry companies hence goes the recommendation to check the pier you leave from/dock at before your trip. Leave enough time before the departure to find your boat and check in. These procedures may take up to a couple of hours on international routes. Last but not least, some piers impose their own ‘pier fee’ on all arriving passengers. This fee is normally not included in your ticket price – keep this in mind.

Travel by Ferry: Pros & Cons

Pros of Ferry Travel

  • Taking a ship allows you to get to some of the islands, beaches, or seaside destinations which otherwise cannot be reached. While ferry travels can be time-consuming and sometimes make you suffer from sea sickness, the possibility of visiting the most paradise, secret, off-the-beaten-track destinations they bring you to usually compensates.
  • Ferry tickets can be booked online. It saves you time and secures your travel itinerary goes as planned. The advanced booking option is especially convenient when travelling during peak season periods, national holidays, or long weekends when there is high demand for tickets and on routes served by a limited number of vessels.
  • On some routes, you are able to choose the class of the ticket or cabin. There are private compartments or standard cabins with a number of extras included or not. Always check the conditions of your fare to take most of your trip.
  • Ferry travel is always fun. It allows you to see the places you visit or just pass by from a different angle. The majority of places look terrific – and totally different! – when viewed from the water. Sailing provides a great opportunity to shoot nice and unique pics and videos – do jump at it!

Cons of Ferry Travel

  • The major concern while travelling by water is motion sickness, which is a very annoying and unpleasant thing. Even if you have never experienced it before, there is no guarantee that the next ferry trip will run smoothly as well. Rough seas and speedboat journeys can make even the strongest stomachs beg for mercy. Follow our recommendations above and take your medicine half an hour prior to your trip. Taking a light meal before travel also helps – more chances to get seasick with an empty stomach.
  • Delays and cancellations are common for ferry trips as they highly depend on weather and sea conditions. It especially concerns travel during shoulder months or off-season. Rains, mossy seas, and stormy weather may interfere with your travel itinerary – try to keep it flexible and do not plan tight flight connections even during the ‘usually-good-weather’ season.

Fast - that’s what counts…
Ferry Speedboat, Tanis Lembongan Express, Feb 23, 2024
C G
We boarded the boat 30 minutes later and the journey took 45 minutes, not 30 like they say. So in total we got to Nusa Penida 45 minutes later than the expected arrival time. The seats are super uncomfortable, there's AC but it's like there's nothing.

Departen on time. Had to walk in the sea to board. Boat well maintained. Arrive 15 minutes before departure is enough

Not clear where to check in. Had to go on your own to the boat. Boat was 30min late for departure while we where waiting inside it. No airco and a 1h trip.

Hopping off into the water was not the best experience I've had. Besides the steps were slippery and some people nearly fell down. The seats are too low so you can't see anything, it's frustrating and can make you feel sick. It's ok for 30 mn, but for a 3 or 4 hours' trip, forget it!

Good trip in general, fast and almost on time (left just 10 min late). But a bit of misinformation in departure since nobody called us to the boat, just followed people when everybody else started moving and had to ask several times to confirm that was our boat to Sanur. We already knew we had to access the boat from beach (getting inside water) in Mushroom Bay, so no surprise there.

You could hardly breathe until the boat started moving. Almost all the fans were broken. After that we were fine, the fresh sea air came through many open windows. The seats were comfortable and the half-hour trip went by quickly. There is no jetty at Lembongan, you have to jump into the water. Watch out who has their pants on ????

My suitcase was very wet outside and everything inside saturated. You should put a tarp over luggage if the seas are rough.

Departure time was 30 minutes late. Some people could not sit down because they were carrying passengers even though they were overcrowded. Service is normal.

Malgré le monde, tout est très bien organisé, prise en charge des bagages et des passagers. Bon accuril et port tout neuf. Checking et embarquement au même endroit. Ai du contacter le bureau sur wahatsapp, super service, à '' ecoute et efficace. Despite the crowds, everything was very well organised, with baggage and passengers taken care of. Good accuril and brand new port. Checking and boarding in the same place. Had to contact the office on wahatsapp, great service, attentive and efficient.

The ride was fast and efficient however the operator was 30min late so waited more than the prescribed 1 hour to board

Unpleasant experience! The lady at reception who gives out the tickets is not pleasant. Afterwards, one of the workers "tchipped" us in the boat, because they hadn't agreed on the management of the tickets before boarding, so we'd already given it to someone else when he came to collect it. Finally, there's no air co and they play the music really loud! It's a good thing it only lasts 30 minutes for your ears.

Easy to use and had no problem catching the ferry! There was a little confusion about the departure location, for first timers, but it was a simple as going to Sanur Harbour

We had tickets for the boat at 12:00 but arrived at the harbour at 9:30. They gave is tickets for the boat at 10:00. Nice area to wait (with A/C), luggage check-in went quick and we left on time. The boat itself is a bit hot and you don’t have much space, but the trip is only 40 minutes so that is fine. When we arrived at Lembongan you get in less than knee deep water, so that is fine.

We travelled with other companies and so far we had the best experience with them. Short delay, the boat was not too crowded, pleasant crossing. Recommended!

The boat left half an hour late with too many people on board. It was tight inside.

The coordinates on the confirmation were not correct. The ferry was actually a quarter of a mile away from the coordinates which made it really stressful for us because we didn’t know exactly where to go. Luckily, like other reviews have said, we departed 30 minutes late. The ferry was really hot and it was hard to breathe

Everything went very smoothly. We boarded at the new port and checked in at a tent a little before the port. The boat just left 30 minutes after the time indicated on the site, but on vacation, 30 minutes isn't much :)

It was very stormy; no safety instructions were given; did not know where the lifewests are located; window broke during cruise and water splashed into the boat……

Very good for going to Lembongan but 30 minutes late for the return to Sanur and uncomfortable seats. 2 different boat. First one excellent but the second one very bad!

Everything went well, but it seems a bit odd that we need to be there one hour before departure. It's just a small ferry not a flight

From mushroom bay at Lembongan was there not a real Harbour like Sanur real New Harbour.

I with my 1.74 meters was very tight, my husband of 1.90 cm was completely stuck. Far more tickets were sold than seats, and we had to get off somewhere near the rocks in Sanur, I've seen several people fall into the water getting out.

We arrived one hour early like the info on the ticked said and our trip was at 12:00 and should had lasted 30 minutes. The boat left at 12:20 and the trip was 45 minutes because they made a stop on another island. The boat is very clean, and the staff helpfull. They even carried our bag onto the boat.

Check in was easy and suitcases carried safely over the water. The boat left a little later and the trip took almost 45 minutes (not 30 as advertised) and it was not too hot inside with the windows open. Although not much leg space, we really liked the trip!

We departed late. We arrived 13:30 instead of 12:30 The boat had engine problems that took while to solve them in the middle of the sea. No Ac and is really hot and we were on top of each other in the cabin. Wear slippers and shorts since you will enter the sea in order to board the fast boat.

On the voucher it says we have to come 1 hour earlier which was not necessary at all. The boat left 30 minutes late and once we arrived They took an eternity to park the boat In addition not comfortable at all

Ticket says 30 min, but the journey took 2 hours since we had to stop at Lombongan first. Moreover we were 30 min delayed from start. So total of 2.5 hours journey. Did see someone else write a similar review, and the crew didn't seem rushed, so just expect a bit of "island time".
