GOING TO PULO ACEH
 Slow boats leave Pulo Aceh at 08.00 for the market in Banda Aceh and
return back to the islands after the noon prayers, app. 14.00. From
Ulee Lhe (near the fast ferries for Pulau Weh) to Deudap and
to Lamting on Pulau Nasi, daily except Fridays, Rp. 10.000. From
Lampuloh (app. 500m from Peunayong towards the sea) to Lampuyang
on Pulau Breuh daily except Fridays. Sometimes pay, sometimes free!
Also occasional boats to Gugup and Meulingge.
Boats can also be chartered on Pulau Weh. The cheapest ones are from
Keunekai or Paya Keunekai. A one day roundtrip can cost app. Rp.1
million, depending on boat size and your bargaining skills.
ON AND BETWEEN THE ISLANDS
Pulo Nasi has motorcycle taxis, so called "RBT". They
wait for passengers in the villages of Rabo, Deudap and Kandang. At
odd hours they can be difficult to find in other villages. Pulo
Breuh has a few occasional motorcycle taxis, but they can be very
expensive. The second alternative is walking.
Pulo Nasi is small enough for that; however Pulo Breuh can be a bit
too big. A walk from Gugup to Meulingge can take five to seven
hours. The sceneries along the walk make the walk into an attraction
by itself.
If you want to go between the islands, you can either ask around if
anyone is going, or charter by yourself.
