The captains of the boats have a code of conduct and prices is included. The minimum price they can charge for 2 people is 200,000 but they can have up to 6 in a boat. We had six and offered Captain (because he wouldn't give us a price, 'no just petrol' he was saying) 50,000rp each person which meant the trip was 300,000rp. They also are only allowed to do one trip a day, so that everyone gets an opportunity when it is busy.
Hope you have a great time, Clare, and that you love Lembongan as much as we do. Most years we just hit Legian for 2 days and then straight over to lembongan, out of the madness!
You will also love Bingin, we have stayed at Mick's the first year we went. A little bit isolated though, might be an idea to hire a car.
