Located in the Golden City area on Batam’s northeastern coast, Gold Coast Bengkong Ferry Terminal sits in one of the island’s most modern and tourist-friendly waterfront districts. The area is known for its trendy lifestyle atmosphere, with stylish cafés, beach bars, seaside dining, and relaxing coastal views all within easy reach of the terminal.
Gold Coast Bengkong is one of Batam’s newer ferry terminals, offering a modern and tourist-friendly travel experience. Compared to some of the island’s busier terminals, it is generally less crowded and feels more relaxed.
The terminal has standard immigration and customs facilities, along with check-in counters and waiting areas.
Designed with passenger comfort in mind, it also offers comfortable waiting lounges and clean, bright restrooms, making the overall experience more pleasant than at older terminals.
The terminal can be easily reached by taxi, private car, or ride-hailing apps such as Grab and Gojek, which are widely available across the island.
The journey from major areas such as Nagoya, Batam Centre, and Hang Nadim International Airport typically takes around 30 minutes, although travel times can vary significantly depending on traffic conditions.
Public transportation options in Batam are limited, so most travelers prefer using taxis or ride-hailing services for convenient access to the terminal.
