Nusa Penida
30-45 min by fast boat from SanurThe largest and most dramatic of the Nusa islands, Nusa Penida is a rugged paradise of towering limestone cliffs, hidden beaches, and crystal-clear waters teeming with manta rays and vibrant coral reefs. Its jaw-dropping landscapes — most famously the T-Rex-shaped Kelingking Beach cliff — have made it one of the most Instagram-famous destinations in all of Indonesia. Despite its growing popularity, much of the island remains wild and undeveloped, with bumpy dirt roads leading to breathtaking viewpoints and secluded coves. A day trip or overnight stay here is an absolute must for anyone visiting Bali who craves raw natural beauty and genuine adventure.
