Your day on the island

The crossing
The fast boat between Bali and Nusa Penida is a scheduled service shared with other passengers, about 30-45 minutes each way.
Your day across the island
Ten parts of the mixed route, west coast first and east coast after lunch. Times are examples in Bali time (WITA); the stops that fit depend on traffic and the boat schedule.
Hotel pickup
Around 06:30, before Bali’s roads get busy. Your exact time is confirmed before departure.
Sanur Port
Check in at the harbour for the morning crossing.
Fast boat to Nusa Penida
Cross to the island by fast boat, about 30-45 minutes.
Toyapakeh or Buyuk Port
Meet your island driver and start the private route, west coast first.
Kelingking Beach
The T-Rex-shaped headland from the clifftop viewpoint. The staircase to the beach is steep and takes hours, so the day stays at the top.
Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong
The rock arch, then the natural pool. Your guide checks the tide and waves before anyone steps in.
Lunch
A local restaurant lunch around 12:30, before the drive across the island.
Diamond Beach
About an hour on the road, then the limestone cliffs and turquoise water of the east coast. Swimming is not allowed here.
Atuh Beach and Tree House
The quieter beach below the cliffs, then the Rumah Pohon viewpoint when the day is running on time.
Boat back to Bali
Return to the harbour by fast boat around 16:30, then continue to your hotel by road.

- The drive between coasts
- The east coast is about an hour from the west side, so lunch marks the halfway point. Heavy traffic can drop the last stop of the day.
- Stairs and viewpoints

- Who is coming?
- Children can join; operators quote minimum ages of 5 to 6 years and usually advise against guests over 65 to 70. Boat steps, stairs, heat and the length of the day are the parts to weigh up.
Getting there
Nusa Penida, Klungkung Regency
The day starts at your hotel and crosses from Sanur by fast boat. Your island driver meets you at Toyapakeh or Buyuk Port, takes the west coast first, then crosses to the east coast after lunch.
Before departure
We confirm your exact pickup time and harbour arrangements. Guests staying near Sanur can ask to meet at the harbour instead.
Changes to your plans
Cancellations are accepted up to 24 hours before the trip. Contact our team as early as possible if your plans change.
Ask on WhatsAppCan we see both coasts in one day?
Usually not every stop. The day is planned around the west coast before lunch and the east coast after it, and five or six stops fit in a normal day. Traffic or a delayed boat can drop the last stop, so your guide confirms the order on the day.
Is the tour private or shared?
The car, driver and guide on Nusa Penida are private to your group. The fast boat from Bali is a scheduled service shared with other passengers.
How long does the day take?
Allow 8-10 hours from hotel pickup to hotel drop-off, with about 7-8 hours on the island. The fast boat takes around 30-45 minutes each way, and the drive between the two coasts adds about an hour.
What is included in the price?
Hotel pickup and drop-off, round-trip fast boat tickets, a private car, driver and fuel, an English-speaking guide, entrance fees to the confirmed stops, retribution and parking fees, and lunch. Snorkeling, personal expenses, extra drinks and tips are not included.
How much does the tour cost?
The rate is per person and depends on your group size: IDR 1,700,000 for one guest, IDR 1,300,000 each for two, IDR 1,100,000 each for three, IDR 950,000 each for four and IDR 850,000 each for five. Larger groups are quoted in chat.
Can I add snorkeling?
Yes. Manta Bay snorkeling is IDR 350,000 per person and Manta Point is IDR 450,000 per person, on top of the day tour. Manta sightings depend on the sea and weather, and Manta Point has the better chance.
Can we swim at Diamond Beach?
No. Diamond Beach has strong waves and current and swimming is not allowed. Atuh Beach and Crystal Bay are calmer, but the tide and your guide decide on the day.
How is this different from the west or east tour?
The single-coast tours spend the whole island day on one side. The mixed tour covers the headline stops of both, which means more time in the car and fewer stops at each viewpoint.
Is the tour suitable for children or older guests?
Children can join with an adult, but operators quote minimum ages of 5 to 6 years. Many older guests enjoy the viewpoints; operators usually advise against guests over 65 to 70 because of the stairs, heat and length of the day. Tell us about your group in Special request.
When can I cancel?
Cancellations are accepted up to 24 hours before the trip. The itinerary can still change for weather, tide, harbour traffic or fast boat scheduling.
Is my booking confirmed when I open WhatsApp?
Opening WhatsApp prepares a request for you to send. Our team confirms availability, pickup and payment arrangements in chat.
