Things to Remember when taking Fast Boat to the Gili

At Giligate.com, your comfort, safety, and premium travel experience are our top priorities. Whether you're heading to Gili Trawangan, Gili Air, or Gili Meno, here are a few helpful tips to ensure your journey goes smoothly.

Some boat might arrive on the Beach

Several fast boats — especially those arriving at Gili Meno — dock directly on the beach. That means you might need to step into shallow water as you disembark. This may also occur at Gili Trawangan or Gili Air, depending on sea conditions. We recommend wearing sandals or removing your shoes during landing for convenience.

Eka Jaya Fast Ferry provides direct service from Serangan and Padang Bai to Gili Meno. Alternatively, you can book your fast boat to Gili Trawangan or Gili Air, and then continue your journey to Gili Meno using a local boat or water taxi. Giligate offers water taxi bookings with Sudin Transport directly through our platform — or you can easily arrange a transfer when you arrive at the harbor.

Getting to Gili Meno

At Giligate, we partner only with certified, top-rated fast boat companies that uphold international safety standards and deliver consistently high service levels. Our carefully curated list of operators includes names like Eka Jaya, Blue Water Express, Wahana Virendra, Darmajaya Jet Ferry, and more — ensuring your trip is both comfortable and worry-free.

While cheaper options might be available elsewhere, they often compromise on boat maintenance, safety protocols, and customer care. With Giligate, you get what you pay for: reliability, comfort, and professional service from boarding to arrival.

Choose a Safe & Reliable Fast Boat

Be cautious when booking through unauthorized agents or suspicious websites. A common scam involves customers booking what they believe is a reputable boat, only to be switched at the last minute to a lower-tier operator — often with the excuse of "technical problems" or "overbooked seats."

When you book with Giligate.com, you're booking directly with the boat operators through a trusted platform with live seat availability. We guarantee that the boat you select is the boat you'll travel with — no surprises, no scams.
