BANYUWANGI JAVA
When I was departing Bali for Java I had taken a "bemo" local small bus to the small coastal town of Gilimanuk to make the ferry crossing from the port of exit in Bali at Gilimanuk..The Ferry across the straits takes about 40 minutes before arriving at the Java side in Banyuwangi the point of entry into Java..This is a very straightforward crossing only costing a few dollars..The bus station is a five minute walk to the ferry office where tickets are easily purchased and there are many ferries leaving every twenty minutes.here in the town of Banuwangi the train leaves for the city of Surabuya.
