Nusa Penida day tours

Three private island routes: the west coast viewpoints, the east coast beaches, or both coasts in one day.

Compare the three routes

Every tour leaves from Bali in the morning, crosses by fast boat and keeps a private car and guide with your group on the island. The difference is which coast you explore and how much time you spend in the car.

The west coast route

Times are examples in Bali time (WITA). Fast boat schedules, weather, tide and harbour traffic can change the order of the day.

West Nusa Penida itinerary
TimeStop
06:30Hotel pickup Leave your hotel early so the day starts before Bali’s roads get busy. Your exact pickup time is confirmed before departure.
07:30Sanur Harbour Check in for the fast boat and wait for the crossing to Nusa Penida.
08:30Arrive in Nusa Penida Meet your private island driver and guide, then start the west coast route.
09:00Angel’s Billabong A natural rock pool carved into black volcanic rock. Your guide checks the tide and waves before anyone steps in.
11:00Broken Beach Walk the cliff rim above the natural rock arch, where the sea pushes through into the cove.
12:00Kelingking Beach The T-Rex-shaped headland from the clifftop viewpoint. The staircase to the beach is steep and takes hours, so a day tour stays at the top.
13:00Lunch A local restaurant lunch with a pause in the shade before the beach part of the day.
14:30Crystal Bay Swim when conditions are friendly, or stay on the sand beside the boats and palm trees.
16:30Boat back to Bali Return by fast boat, then continue to your hotel by road. Your driver confirms the drop-off at pickup.

The east coast route

The east side is a longer drive from the harbour, so the day is planned around the crossing and the stairs at each stop.
