There are public ferries from Lembar (Lombok) to Padang Bai every hour, 24 hours a day. The trip normally takes four hours (but it can be considerably longer in poor weather) and costs Rp 35,000. It should be understood that this ferry has a poor safety record.
Perama runs a daily ferry service from Lombok (Rp 200,000) and the Gili Islands (Rp 300,000) to Padang Bai one way including bus transfers.
There are fast boat services from the Gili Islands to Padang Bai. These have been something of a movable feast with operators coming and going, but one constant has been the Gili Cat service for Rp 660,000 one way. Travel time is 2 hours.
