Manado地图上的水路交通路线 Manado-Jailolo-Ternate-Sanana-Ambon

There are some commercial operators (KM Permata Obi, KM Barcelona I and KM Permata Bunda) which sail all the way from Manado to Ambon (Slamet Riyadi port just besides the main port) over Jailolo, Ternate, Sanana. The journey typically takes 2.5-3 days, and has sometimes plenty of waiting time in the ports it is passing. Not really recommended for the comfort, but the frequency and travel speed is higher than with Pelni. Mind that with all sea transport in Indonesia on these kind of boats there are often delays due to organisational disfunction, weather, ...

Schedules departing from:
- Jailolo to Ternate: Thu/Sat/Mon morning
- Ternate to Sanana: Thu/Sat/Mon afternoon
- Sanana to Ambon: Fri/Sun/Tue afternoon
- Sanana to Ternate: Wed/Thu/Sun afternoon
- Ternate to Jailolo: Thu/Fri/Mon ~noon
- Jailolo to Manado: Thu/Fri/Mon afternoon

Basic travel are bunk beds with usually AC on that deck; there are normally also rooms to be rent (2-4 people) at a premium.

Still to be paid cash on the boat or in the offices at the port.
