Gili Trawangan Port sits on the largest of three islands that form the Gili Islands, a small island group off the northwest coast of Indonesia. The island group relies massively on tourism, especially Gili Trawangan, which has developed its infrastructure solely to attract tourists by presenting them with the chance to relax in luxurious resorts. Most resorts around the port will provide accommodation in the form of small huts, typically with a pool and restaurants offering local dishes. The Gili Islands offer crossings around each of the islands, as well as ferry routes to Lombok Port on the west coast of Indonesia, providing the gateway into the heart of the country. However, the most popular crossing is to Bali, one of the most sought-after holiday destinations in the world. The sailing runs frequently throughout the day, usually lasting around four to five hours. Transport to the port is limited on Gili Trawangan island; there are no motorized vehicles operating on any of the islands, so most land journeys are traversed by foot, bicycle or a small horse drawn carriage known as a Cidomo.
The west Indonesian island of Bali has been a booming tourist destination since the late 20th century and it’s easy to see why. Sitting just south of the equator, the island has a year-round tropical climate that can be enjoyed from one of the silk-sand beaches that skirt the ultramarine coast of the Balinese Sea. The port of Amed can be found on the north-east coast of the isle. The terminal here is small with very few amenities, thus making it more suited to island hoppers looking to make the short trip east towards the Indonesian province of West Nusa Tenggara. There is little in the way of public transport on Amed and just a single, narrow road that links the town to the other settlements on the island. Fast ferries regularly carry passengers throughout the week to the Gili islands, including Gili Air and Gili Trawanga, as well as the port of Bangsal on the larger isle of Lombok. These destinations all sit within the Coral Triangle, the richest centre of marine life on earth, making it a Valhalla for ardent divers. The times and frequency of ferries leaving from the port of Amed are subject to change so it is recommended to check live departure boards before setting off on your journey.
