23 Best Things To Do Nusa Penida In 2024

23 Top Things To Do On Nusa Penida; Complete Itinerary For 2024

Are you ready for the 23 best things to do on Nusa Penida island? Nusa Penida is the largest of the amazing three Nusa Islands which are situated close to mainland Bali, making it easy enough to visit for a day trip. There are also some stunning places to stay on Nusa Penida, dream villas!

The islands are made up of the three Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan, and Nusa Ceningan. They all provide epic things to do and amazing landscapes to view. We will look at how to get from Bali to Nusa Penida Island. If you are looking for the Nusa Penida points of interest, you have come to the right place.

There are plenty of epic things to see on Nusa Penida island and some of the typical tourist spots will blow your mind. Kelingking Secret Point Beach is unbelievably stunning, and the other beaches on Nusa Penida are amazing. You can also get the chance to see Seganing waterfallAtuh Beach, Broken Beach, and the beautiful Angel’s Billabong. A 3 or 4-night stay on Nusa Penida island is just right to see everything this amazing island has to offer.

When you arrive at Nusa island you will be offered to rent a scooter, straight away. I was like WOW as there are so many locals screaming “scooter scooter” but it’s the norm. We took one up on their offer and got a great deal after a little bartering and got the scooter for 60,000 Rupiah a day, which is like $4 a day. This also, amazingly enough, comes with a full tank of gas and when the gas runs out it only costs you $1 to fill the whole tank back up. Bargain. This is the best way to get around the island.

The 23 best things to do Nusa Penida island in Bali

#1 Kelingking Beach

This was the top thing on our Nusa Penida island bucket list, and it was the first epic place we visited.Kelingking beach is a truly spectacular location and a must-visitor for all those lucky enough to call at Nusa Penida. However, getting down to the actual beach is not for the fainthearted due to the steep climb from the top of the cliff to the bottom.

This is the best Nusa Penida beach, hands down. And if you are looking at what to do on Nusa Penida, this should be top of your list.

The amazing KelingkinBeachch is one of the best photography locations in all of Bali. Nusa Penida is an amazing island.

For those who dare to climb down, the Kelingking Cliff will be rewarded with a white sanded beach, blue rolling sea and tropical palm trees. It’s like being on a film set, like something from the great movie Castaway that starred Tom Hanks when he gets marooned on his own on the island. It gets hot down there, and luckily enough, there are fantastic locals selling coconuts and drinks for as little as $2. Perfect… If you’re a beach lover, you will love Maya Bay in Thailand!

#2 Kelingking Cliff-Top

As much as the beach is an amazing spot to visit, the Kelingking cliff edge viewpoints offer a unique overview of this super cool location. However, the cliffs are high so take ultra care when trekking along the top and watch every step you take. Also, a great time to visit is when the sun is dropping, you can take advantage of the red sky lighting up Kelingking Beach. This is one of the best places to see in Bali by far!

Visiting Kelingking Beach on Nusa Penida would be great either early morning or later on in the day if you are not the biggest fan of crowds. The crowds during the noon and later on can get very busy and people rush about to take their amazing photos.

#3 Peguyangan Waterfall

A mega location for bringing out the spiritual side in you. This top waterfall on Nusa Penida is reached by trekking down a few hundred steps to where the cliff meets the sea. The Peguyangan waterfall climb takes about 20/25 minutes and is a great way for a cardio workout as it will certainly burn a few calories, winner. Guys, you have to wear a sarong as a sacred temple waits at the bottom, don’t worry these can be hired at the top for 5000 Rupiah and it’s cool for a lad to wear these considering the setting. You should visit here on your Nusa Penida tour.

At the bottom, locals were praying and washing in the spiritual water coming through the statues and out the waterfalls. They encourage you to get involved with trying out the water over the head to cleanse your soul, fun and worth a try.

#4 Manta cliff edge view-point

Mantviewpointnt gives you one of the best locations oe Nusa Penida island for views. We were stunned at this sweet spot and also had the full cliff top to ourselves. The Manta View-point is a 5-minute ride from the Peguyangan waterfall so it is worth visiting them both together, also there is no fee at all to pay for parking when visiting Manta View-point.

Another great find by us was this Nusa Penida temple next to the Manta Viewpoint, the temple is stunning architecture and we couldn’t believe we also had this to ourselves, not one visitor, prayer or worker insight. Perfect.

#5 Crystal Bay Beach Nusa Penida

Upon arrival crystal bay beach is not as spectacular as other beaches on Nusa Penida island, however, it is still worth a visit to enjoy a relaxing few hours on the coastline.

Crystal bay beach is around 150 metres long and is a top Nusa Penida tour tourist spot for snorkelling. Although, I wouldn’t pay for snorkelling as you can easily swim out roughly 40 metres to the primer location

One thing to keein p mind is how closthe e tide comes in, we set up for the day but had to move several times. Also, the beds are roughly 100,000 Rupiah which I thought was expensive. So take your towel and save yourself some money.

The best thing about Crystal Beach is the secret beach we found climbing up the hill and trekking for 10 minutes. This trek takes you to a stunning little secret beach on Nusa Penida.

#6 The Secret Nusa Penida Beach

we named it the secret beach on Nusa Penida as we found it and doesn’t have a name, it is a true hidden gem. The Secretary Beach is roughly 80 metres long of white sand. With no one around, you will most likely have this beauty spot to yourself.

There is also a cool hut sort of thing that has been built, it looks like someone has got stranded here and built a makeshift home that provides shade from the hotbed rays of the sun.

Due to its location,on there isn’t any drinks or snacks available for purchase, so I would take a bottle of water and some fruit.

#7 Angel’s Billabong

The Nusa Penida Angel’s Billabonis g a truly remarkable location that attracts lots of eager visitorall day longng. The area is a crystal clear rockery that is surrounded by around 8 metre high cliffs usually filled with stand-in photographers taking pics of those floating in the rockery.

It is a true spectacle and one of the best things to din o Nusa Penidonof the island. However, a word of warning: the formation is similar to an infinity pool and gets very dangerous near the edge when the tide is in. It is known that people have died in the past on Angel’s Billabong, get into to close to the edge and being pulled over to overcome the tide.

Nevertheless, don’t let the warning put you off; it is brilliant and makes for some epic pictures.

#8 Nusa Penida’s Broken Beach

A 2-minute walk from Angel’s Billabong is BrokeBeachch, which is one of my favourite locations on the island due to its stunning vast open area, blue waters, and broken-up cliff, allowing the ocean to creep into the beach below. The cliff formation is in a spectacular circle, allowing visitors to get a 360-degree view of the beach underneath.

Take great care near the edge as there are no railings, and it is a high drop! You will appreciate that this is one of the best beaches on Nusa Penida.

We walked the full circle, grabbed some great photos of the amazing views and then found some soft grass to watch the sun go down over Broken Beach. Also, a few stalls sell refreshing drinks, beers and snacks.

#9 Atuh Beach

Like some of the other top things to see on Nusa Penida, Atuh Beach is reached through remarkable spiritual villages. Atuh Beach is a very memorable beach due to the sweet formation of rocks, white sands, and cliffs, like something from a typical picture of a Thailand paradise.

#10 Nusa Lembongan

The awesome island Nusa Lembongan is one of the three epic islands, including Nusa Penida. If you are visiting Nusa Penida, I would highly recommend staying overnight at Nusa Lembongan. You can also check out the Manta ray snorkelling here on this amazing island. You can expect to find cheap places to stay here along with cheap food.

You could also go a little higher class in the hotels on a more luxuriousry holiday.

#11 Giri Putri Cave

This epic GirPutriri cave on Nusa Penida iy worth a visit. A  sarong is needed to enter the cave, but you can pick one up for 10,000 rupiahs each. You will go up to some temple upstairs when you enter this cool cave. You will then probably be blessed by a local man, by a blessing I mean he will be throwing water on you.
Don’t estimate the size from what you see when entering the cave. It’s surprisingly a big cave. I think we reached the end of prayers. You should find out from a local the time of the ceremonies. This would be pretty cool to watch.

This is a cool little beach if you are looking for a beach with a little difference. It’s a good spot for checking out local boats and catching a tan while you lay back and enjoy the hot sun.

#13 Manta Bay

You can take a local fishing boat from crystal bay to Manta Bay a short 10-minute boat ride to swim with the amazing Manta Rays is incredible to see these huge gentle giants so close.

Snorkelling in Manta Bay is okay for children and is very safe. You can enjoy freshly caught fish cooked by the locals on the beach if you get hungry. It’s untouched and very natural, so don’t expect flash dining here. It’s simple and beautiful.  Scuba Diving is also popular at Crystal Bay, and a lot of visitors to the three islands often try out scuba diving.

#23 Surf Nusa Lembongan

If you love surfing Nusa Lembongan is one of Bali’s best-kept secrets. Not many surfers venture here, which can leave Nusa Lembongan’s best breaks uncrowded — a rare treat in Indonesia. While the surf in some parts of Bali is a bit touristy and predictable, the water around Nusa Lembongan gets rougher as it approaches the mainland coast; this means that you geezers crowds (and tourists) and more waves, even in the wet season.

  1. By far, the coolest place you can stay is the Nusa Penida treehouse on this amazing island. This epic treehouse near AtuBeachch has one of the best sunsets in Nusa Penida and Bali.
  2. La Roja Bungalows – The Nusa Penida Bungalows are fairly rebuilt. You will find a cool atmosphere here, and everyone is very friendly. This accommodation on Nusa Penida is quite basic, but this is all you need when you’re on a backpacking adventure. The rooms are clean, and there are plenty of plug sockets to charge your laptops, phones, etc. You will be pleased to know there is decent WiFi and a comfortable bed with a decent water pressure shower. Breakfast is the usual toast/fruit/egg choice, but what was served to us was nice and was more than enough to start the day. There are drinks available at a reasonable price in the evening and some decent restaurants on the road for you to check out.
  3. Penida Bay Village – This is the top place to stay near Crystal Bay Beach and Gamat Bay. You will also find it easy to get to KelingkinBeachch from here. There is also a restaurant here for you to enjoy, and dry cleaning is offered. WiFi, good showers, free toiletries, backpackers’ essentials, and free water. This accommodation is in a perfect location.
  4. Batang Golden Hills Villa – These top Nusa Penida villas are brilliant. They are fairly newly built, but they are soon becoming the best places to stay on this epic island! There are only 2 villas now and they are wonderful! It’s super big and clean. You get towels, soap, and even a welcome drink on your arrival here. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. They will take the timeout to chat with you and answer any questions you may have. You can get yourself some food here; it is quite cheap. These villas are located on the quieter east side of Nusa Penida.
  5. Sunset Hills Cottage – This epic place to stay offer crazily stunning views. The rooms are very spacious and offer large, comfortable beds. The rooms are kept very clean and are well looked after. There is everything you need here. The staff and the owner are awesome and will answer any questions about Nusa Penida, such as the best things to do in Nusa Penida.

How to get from Sanur to Nusa Penida?

Getting from Sanur to Nusa Penida is not difficult, and it’s worth it to see Nusa Penida!

  • I travelled from Mainland Bali to Nusa Penida and paid for each part of the journey separately. After arriving in Seminyak from England, we decided to just stay here for one night and then head straight to Nusa Penida from Seminyak.
  • We used one of the local stands on the street to book the boat ride towards Nusa Penida. You may be a little sceptical about these salesmen standing in huts on the street, but ours was fine. You shouldn’t have any trouble.
  • The first payment covered a taxi from my hotel to the boat and then the boat to Lembongan. This costs just 300,000 Rupiah per person, which is roughly $22.
  • Then, from Nusa Lembongan to Nusa Penida, a private hire boat costs just 50,000 Rupiah per person, roughly $4.
  • I took this journey as I stayed in Nusa Penida for nearly a week. However, you can make a visit from mainland Bali for a Nusa Penida one-day tour, which you can get for 330,000 Rupiah, which is roughly $24.
  • Top Tip – Nusa Penida is a stunning island to visit even if it’s just for the day; however, if you can try and visit and stay for a few nights, that way you can take in the breathtaking spots, enjoy the culture of the island and get a feel for the way of life on there. You will not regret it.

How to get around Nusa Penida island?

Nusa Penida is the biggest of the 3 Nusa islands, so it can take a while to get from one side to the other. If you do the Nusa Penida island tour, they will arrange transport.

Renting a scooter on Nusa Penida – If you’re looking for an adventurous ride, you should opt for a bike. This is the best way to get around Nusa Penida. This costs around IDR 50,000 and is easily rentable straight from the harbour. However, be careful as roads in Nusa Penida are narrow and can get pretty crazy in places. But you’ll be all good if you take your time.
