To get to Lombok, you can travel by air, ferry or fast boat. There are daily flights between Denpasar, Bali and the capital of Lombok, Mataram. Lombok’s Selaparang Airport is located on the northern side of Mataram. The public ferry travels between Padangbai (Bali) and Lembar (Lombok) multiple times a day, and the trip takes roughly four hours. Both motorbikes and cars can be taken on the ferry. Ferries also travel between Labuhan Lombok and Poto Tano on Sumbawa several times a day, and this trip takes one and a half hours. Please be advised however, if you are prone to seasickness – the trip can be rough. Another option is by fast boat – Blue Water Safari’s run express boats from Bali to Lombok, the Gili islands and Lebongan Island. Lombok is the island with something for everyone. Whether you have a few days or a few weeks, you can fill your days with something to do or somewhere to visit.
