Bako boat first departure ~7:30–8am weekends queue early — register park entry online before Bako HQ jetty, boat RM40–50 return pay jetty. Arrive 7am Kuching leave 6:30 Grab. No pre-book boat just queue. Last return ~3pm strict. Monsoon high waves cancel morning check FB. Weekday less queue 8am fine. Park ranger assigns boat load.
