Marina Srikandi Fast Boat


One way of getting in to Lombok from Bali, besides by flight or (4-6 hours) ferry boat, is by using fast boats. There are so many fast boat organizers you can choose. One of the most recommended one is Marina Srikandi.

Boasting for its realiable, fast boat services from anywhere in Bali to Senggigi, Gili Trawangan, Gili Air and Mainland Lombok, Marina Srikandi makes it possible for you who are in Bali and want to cross over from Bali to Lombok without the hassle of spending more time on the road from the Lombok International airport to, let's say, Senggigi Area or Gili Trawangan.

Moreover, their service includes pick up and drop off in Bali. Let's take a look closer to what Marina Srikandi can offer us!

Marina Srikandi's publish fare is IDR 450K/one way
We have #PromoDeal of IDR 375K/one way/pax
valid until 31 March 2014


To be able to give a good review and recommendation to our clients, we took a return trip from Senggigi - Bali - Senggigi. And we'd like to share our experience using them.
From Senggigi to Bali
Our trip back, from Padang Bai to Senggigi
One thing we can highlight from Marina Srikandi is that they are on time. They were on time arriving at Senggigi Harbour and on time to pick us up in Bali with their van to take us to Padang Bai as well. So we won't complain about their time arrangement.

The jetty in Senggigi
For the boat itself, we are happy to see that it is clean and neat. The seats are comfortable enough for us to spend approximately 75 minutes. They also provide 1 bottle of mineral water to each passenger. 

Comfortable interior

In general, it was a smooth sailing for us. We were able to see the other side of Bali and Lombok from the sea. The view when the boat is approaching Padang Bai Harbour or Senggigi Harbour or the Gilis is awesome.


Sophisticated boat design

So, Marina Srikandi is really a good alternative if you want to cross over from Bali to Lombok without wasting time on the flight and on the road from BIL to Senggigi or Gili Area, indeed :-)

Feel free to contact us for more info and details.

Cheers,
