The port, the crossings in range, and where the timetables and tickets are sold.

Batam has 8 ports on record: Port of Nongsapura, Telaga Punggur Harbour, Sekupang Port, Batu Ampar Port, Port of Air Raja, Port of Batu Anam, Harbour Bay Port, Port of Bulang Lintang (Wikidata). Whether a passenger crossing runs from it, and to where, is set by the operators; the port pages below give the sea distance to other port cities on this site, and the sellers hold the timetables.
