Indonesia Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB)  Waterways Assessment

The use of the waterways between islands is a key mode of transport for cargo and passengers within the NTB province. 

Ports are located throughout the islands and there are ferry options to move within the islands or to Bali. 

In case of an emergency operation PT. ASDP would offer ferries available for rental. 

The port of Surabaya is a major hub for the NTB with regular sailings of boats and ferries with passengers and cargo.
