Karya Bahari 01, 02, 03 and 04: Routes

All four vessels operate the same circular shuttle route between Bangsal and the Gili Islands. Each trip runs the full loop in both directions, stopping at Gili Air, Gili Meno and Gili Trawangan. You can board or disembark at any stop, making the boats equally useful for Bangsal to Gili, Gili to Bangsal, or inter-Gili island hopping.
 
Outbound: Bangsal → Gili Air → Gili Meno → Gili Trawangan
 
Return: Gili Trawangan → Gili Meno → Gili Air → Bangsal
 
Eight departures run daily from Bangsal, starting at 09:00 and running hourly until 16:00. 
 

Onboard Facilities & Seating

The Karya Bahari boats are open-air vessels designed for the short local crossing between Bangsal and the Gili Islands.

There is no air-conditioning, which is typical for this route.

The crossing to Gili Trawangan takes around 30 minutes, so comfort is not usually a concern.
 

  • Seating: Removable cushioned seating for 75 passengers. Seating is not assigned, so arriving early at the harbour counter gives you a better choice of spot.
     
  • Toilet: An onboard toilet is available throughout the crossing.
     
  • Luggage space: Ample space for luggage is provided onboard. The allowance is 15 kg per person. Large or oversized bags may not be accommodated on this smaller vessel.
