About this tour
Skip the Bali mainland for a full-day escape to Nusa Penida, a rugged island reached by fast boat. Departing at 7 am from your hotel, you'll spend 12 hours exploring dramatic coastal formations, swimming holes, and cliffsides before returning by evening. The itinerary takes in Angel Billabong's natural pools, Klingking's sheer drop beaches, Crystal Bay's turquoise shallows, and the arched stone gateway at Broken Beach. A private vehicle, English-speaking driver, entrance fees, and Indonesian lunch are sorted.

What to expect
You'll be collected early from your accommodation and driven to the port. The boat ride to Nusa Penida takes roughly an hour across open water—bring a light layer or seasickness tablets if prone. Once on the island, expect a series of short walks to viewpoints and swimming spots, each 15–30 minutes apart by car. Surfaces are uneven; wear sturdy shoes. Swimming happens at designated spots; bring a towel and change of clothes. Lunch is a sit-down meal featuring rice, vegetables, and protein. The return boat departs mid-afternoon, getting you back to your hotel by evening.
Good to know
High fitness level needed due to uneven terrain and steep coastal paths. Not suitable for pregnant travellers, those with spinal issues, or poor cardiovascular fitness. Infants travel free but must sit on an adult's lap. Bring sunscreen, water, and a hat. The boat can be choppy; sit amidships if sensitive to motion. Personal expenses (drinks, snacks, souvenirs) are extra.
