FERRY SCHEDULE

There are 2 kind of ferries to get to Siberut Island (Playground Area, Mentawai).

• MENTAWAI FAST FERRY: is the best choice regarding time and quality. It works on:
  • Tuesday: 7am from Padang. It arrives at 13.30 to Siberut. (it takes more than 6 hours as it does not go direct)
  • Thursday: 7am from Padang. It arrives at 10.30 to Siberut. (it takes more than 3 hours as it goes direct)
    ​(IT IS NOT WORKING DURING COVID-19. Updated March 2021)
  • Saturday: 7am from Padang.  It arrives at 13.30 to Siberut. (it takes more than 6 hours as it does not go direct)
• GAMBOLO, SUMBER, AMBU-AMBU:  it takes from 10-12 hours (you spend the night there and you save a night in Padang). Contact us to know the Schedule, it often changes, but normally works on Friday. 

On the way back to Padang the Mentawai Fast Ferry works the same days (Tuesday (3h), Thursday (6h) and Saturday (3h) ) and it arrives at the same time: 6 PM to Padang. 

​That's why we highly recommend you to spend the last night in Padang so you make sure you take the flight to your next destination the next day.
