TL;DR
Direct boats from Nusa Penida to Gili Trawangan do exist, with departures around 10:30 from Banjar Nyuh port. Check booking platforms for schedules as options may be limited.
A direct boat from Nusa Penida to Gili Trawangan departs around 10:30 from Banjar Nyuh port — one of several ports on the island. It's worth choosing the departure port closest to your accommodation.
Trip.com lists boat schedules from Nusa Penida. Options can be very limited — sometimes just one boat per day on a given date (e.g. at 13:30). If traveling with children, book early and have a backup plan.
If no direct boat fits your schedule, the alternative is to return to Sanur (Bali), stay overnight, and depart to Gili Trawangan the next day. This costs an extra day but offers more departure time options.
