Nusa Penida – Bali’s Pristine Gem of Enchantment

Uncover the hidden allure of heavenly islands, where nature harmonises and mysteries lie beneath the surface. 

Nusa Penida, commonly known as Penida Island, is located near Bali, and one of the best tourist attractions in Indonesia. Including Nusa Lembongan, it consists of numerous smaller islands. The island, that falls under the Klungkung Regency, is steep, with a maximum elevation of 524 metres, and it endures drier weather than Bali. The local economy is mostly based on subsistence farming, with seaweed cultivation providing a considerable source of income despite decreasing prices and productivity.

In Balinese, “nusa” means “island”, and “penida” means “priests”.

Aside from conquests and cultural legacies, Nusa Penida has a long history of black magic because of its link with dark spirits that were expelled by Bali's priests. The island remains an important religious and cultural destination because of the spiritual belief in the balance of good and evil in the universe, according to Bali's culture.
Nusa Penida can be reached by a variety of sea transport options from Bali, notably speedboats, traditional boats, ferries, and cruise ships. Having no airport, the closest air-transport to the island is the international airport in Bali. The most suitable option for a convenient journey is to arrange a day tour from Bali mainland.

Nature
The island is well-known for mesmerising beaches, breathtaking highlands, and pristine marine life, particularly the well-maintained coral reefs. These partner with unique marine creatures and offer outstanding diving and snorkelling opportunities. Landmarks like Broken Beach and Kelingking Beach provide stunning coastline scenery for photography and exploring.

Wildlife
The island is a popular bird sanctuary, with conservation efforts spearheaded by the Friends of the National Parks Foundation, which facilitates the rehabilitation and release of endangered species. Wildlife enthusiasts may see a robust population of white-tailed tropicbirds and other endangered bird species, which contribute to Nusa Penida's status as an island-wide bird sanctuary.

Adventure
Trekking, mountain biking, and camping are all options for adventurers looking to explore the island's rough landscape. The island provides snorkelling experiences, along with diving opportunities at varied dive spots such as Crystal Bay and Manta Point, where tourists may see amazing marine life like mola mola (oceanic sunfish) and manta rays. Freediving offers immersive experiences in the many underwater ecosystems, overseen by trained operators to assure safe and unforgettable expeditions.

Culture
Nusa Penida has various temples of religious and cultural significance, including Pura Goa Giri Putri and Pura Ped, which offer knowledge about Balinese Hindu customs. While touring the island, travellers can also learn about its unique culture, architecture, and dance styles.
