GOING TO PULO ACEH
There
is a ferry from Ulee Lhe to Lamting on Pulo Nasi. The schedule is
still temporary, but normally Tues., Thurs., Sat., and Sun. morning
to Nasi and back after noon. Rp. 15.000. From the ferry terminal in
Ulee Lhe.
Traditional 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.
15.000. 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.
