Why Nusa Penida is a Must-Visit for UK Travellers
Across the Badung Strait just 40 minutes by speedboat from Sanur lies Bali's dramatic sister island archipelago: Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan, and Nusa Ceningan. Famous across the world for the sculpted T-Rex limestone promontory at Kelingking Beach, natural rock arches at Broken Beach, shimmering white Diamond Beach, and year-round marine sanctuaries where giant gentle oceanic manta rays glide gracefully over coral reefs.
Insider Tips & Secret Spots in Nusa Penida
- ✓Sleep 2 nights across on neighbouring tranquil Nusa Lembongan or Nusa Penida so you reach Kelingking & Diamond Beach at 7:30 AM before mainland day boats dock.
- ✓Take an early morning private outrigger boat snorkel trip to Manta Point and crystal-clear Crystal Bay.
- ✓Nusa Lembongan's Jungutbatu & Mushroom Bay feature smooth luxury oceanfront villas right steps from shallow snorkelling coves.
- ✓Wear proper gripped trainers rather than flip-flops if descending dramatic cliff stairs down to Diamond Beach sand.

“Swimming gently beside giant mantas then walking Diamond Beach at 7am”
Staying two nights on the islands made all the difference — we arrived at Diamond Beach with literally four other people there, and snorkelling above three huge manta rays was unreal.
