Nusa Penida is the wild, rugged island you have seen all over Instagram, about 40 minutes by fast boat from Sanur. The west coast is the classic route: the Kelingking viewpoint, the natural arch at Broken Beach and the rock pool at Angel's Billabong. The east coast is quieter, with Diamond Beach, Atuh Beach and the Thousand Islands viewpoint.
Roads on the island are narrow and bumpy, so this is a long but rewarding day. Bring comfortable shoes for the viewpoints, sunscreen, swimwear and a dry bag for the boat. Tell us whether you prefer the west, the east, or a mix with snorkeling and we will plan the day around it.
Nusa Penida day trip questions
How long is the Nusa Penida day trip?
It is a full day. Expect an early hotel pickup, a 40-minute fast boat each way and most of the day touring the island before heading back to Bali in the late afternoon.
Which side of Nusa Penida should we visit?
First-timers usually choose the west for Kelingking and Broken Beach. If you have seen those or want fewer crowds, the east side with Diamond Beach is a great alternative.
Is the Nusa Penida trip suitable for children?
Older children who are fine with long days in the car usually enjoy it. The steep path down to Kelingking beach is not suitable for kids, but the viewpoint at the top is.
