Getting to Paradise on Earth: Nusa Penida

#2023travelwish

Pristine beaches, cliffs and clear waters.. this paradise on earth is just 25km from the main Bali island! Nusa Penida is known for its instagrammable spots, manta rays, and treks. Here's a quick guide on getting to Nusa Penida from Bali:

Transport:
The only way to Nusa Penida is by fastboat. The journey will take 45 minutes each way, and boats depart from Sanur Harbour. There are various companies/timings, but a majority depart at 0730/0830 and return at 1530/1630.

Ticket Info & Cost:
IDR150.000 per person/one way. The price will vary if you book a tour package. Most travellers either book tickets through their drivers, or show up at the harbour and buy directly at the counters.

Tourist fee is IDR25.000 adults and IDR15.000 children.

Experience:
Sanur Harbour was opened this year, so it's comfortable. The fastboat ride was fine. However, arriving at Nusa Penida will require you to walk through sand/water up the beach. The island is rustic and underdeveloped, so the rides are bumpy, narrow and a bit dangerous. But, the sites and views were worth everything. Look at the pictures! You MUST see them in person.

Highlights:
Kelingking Beach (separate post), Crystal Bay, Broken Beach, Diamond Beach

2023 travel wish! Hoping to visit the Great Barrier Reef! Have never been there before and it looks amazing.
