● Road to Gili Trawangan island
Early in the morning, a transfer will pick you up from your hotel or villa and take you to Padang Bay Port. You must wait for the car at the entrance to the villa or at the hotel reception.
At the port you need to find the office of the Ostina boat company and check in for the flight. You must register 60 minutes before the boat departure time. Please keep your paper ticket with tear-off pages in a safe place as you will need this ticket to check in for your return trip.
The boat from Padang Bay Port departs at 09:30 am. The journey to Gili Trawangan by speedboat will take about two and a half hours. If you do not tolerate sea motion well, take motion sickness tablets an hour before departure.
● Main program
Upon arrival on Gili Trawangan, you will be greeted by an attendant holding a "MOS-Activity" sign.
Depending on your arrival time, you will be asked to leave your luggage at the hotel or at the port office. You will then go on a group snorkeling trip on a private boat.
During snorkeling, you can buy underwater filming on GoPro (surcharge on the spot about 200K)
Snorkeling takes place at three spots: the “nest” spot - underwater statues; a spot with turtles near the island of Gili Meno and a spot “garden of fish” near the island of Gili Air.
Then around 14:00 - 15:00 in the afternoon you will have lunch on Gili Meno (lunch is not included in the price), after which the organized part of the trip will be completed and you can independently plan the remaining time on the island or just relax at the hotel.
The next day, we recommend waking up early to watch the sunrise and have breakfast at the hotel. Check-out time from the hotel is until 10:00.
● Way back
To check-in for a flight from Gili Trawangan to Bali, you must go to the Ostina office 60 minutes before the boat departure time and show your ticket. The boat departs at 12:00.
On the way back, boat delays are common, so to make your wait on the beach comfortable, you need to have hats with you and it’s better to look for shade so that you don’t get tired of waiting in the heat.
Upon arrival at the port of Padang Bay, you need to go to the ticket office of the boat company (where you checked in for your flight to Gili) and the boat company staff will tell you how to find a group transfer to your area. The transfer will take you to your hotel, villa or meeting point.
