The journey to Bangsal Harbor on the mainland takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes and costs around 15,000 to 25,000 IDR (approximately $1 to $2 USD). Once you arrive at Bangsal Harbor, proceed to the taxi or minivan stand located just outside the harbor.

You may need to wait for the bus to fill up before it departs. The bus ride to Narmada will take roughly 40 to 50 minutes and costs around 10,000 IDR (approximately $0.70 USD). Once you arrive at the Narmada area, ask the bus driver or local residents for directions to Candi Narmada, which is a short walk from the bus stop.
