2024 (subject to changes, as they occur)
Health and Visa regulations in Indonesia are constantly changing, and you should contact us directly on WA or Email to get the
latest Information, as I’m sure it will continually change through the season. But Vaccinations should be a base line in any
case.
Getting to Rote and Kampung Kakak can be tricky for first-time travellers. Travel throughout East Indonesia is still
unpredictable, due to weather and "technical reasons". We highly recommend Travel Insurance for the "unexpected" event.
Kampung Kakak will assist with as much information to make your journey hassle-free.

Entry Ports to Indonesia (Bali and Jakarta) have direct flights to nearest Jet Port (Kupang). These can be found on
https://www.traveloka.com/en-au, a pretty good site to get information on times and connections. Departure times vary
with Lion, Garuda, and Citilink doing the run
Local Domestic SUSI AIR will lift you to Rote around 7am and return around 8.30am. (also https://www.traveloka.com/en-au )
Wings Air/Lion Air, SUSI and Air Asia charge for all domestic surfboard check-in baggage.

2024 from Bali to Kupoang, 
Our inter-Island ferry departs Kupang at 9am (current 2023). A variation of this is expected for 2024, but unpublished as yet
Seasonal times for Ferry do occur, so please contact Kampung Kakak, nearer your arrival to confirm details. Strong winds in
July and August can impact on Ferry times, please contact us several days before using Ferry, to check sailing times. Honestly,
unless needed, best to avoid the ferry due to unpredictability and delays due to wind, or marine reasons.
We can arrange a taxi transfer from Baa Harbor or Airport, by a private driver, we have a special arrangement of 400,000 per
car (4 people). If from Slow ferry Habour cost is 750,000. We need your assistance in ensuring this is available and you need to contact our Manager Ibu Mince (+62-81339698-529) when leaving Kupang. But you also need to advise us of your intention and needs, at least a week beforehand. We cannot be responsible to collect you if you do not assist in this, as Harbor and Airport are both 37km away. Casual pickup from either port will be around 500,000 (if available).
If traveling with Surfboards >1.65m, then don't hesitate to get in touch with us, as Susi air may apply a strict policy on board carry/refusal. And
can be frustrating if you arrive at Check-in, and your board is refused. Boards would need to be shipped overnight on Ferry
New registration of NON-INDONESIAN Phones and Internet/Phone cards are in place in Indonesia, these can be confusing,
best to get a local SIM card, or avail yourself of a TOURIST 30 day travel SIM, only available in Bali airport.. Recommended to
get a local SIM card for Internet (SIMPATI/Telkomsel), for $7USD (5GB) monthly plan, as WIFI is average reception on Rote,
and better to have local SIM for checking in various locations. Note Indonesia has a LOCAL Internet and National Internet, if
buying Bali local internet will not work on Rote. Best wait until Rote to top up.
