Bali to Nusa Lembongan by ferry
2 crossings run this, from 2 different ports. The port you leave from changes the journey more than the operator does, so start there.
Three ports on Bali handle the island crossings. Sanur and Serangan face the Nusa islands, while Padang Bai on the east coast is closest to the Gilis and Lombok.

Pick the port that shortens your road transfer, then compare operators on that crossing. A shorter sea leg from a port two hours away is rarely the faster trip.
