Nusa Penida Snorkelling + Island Tour

Nusa Penida Island Tour

Nusa Penida is the largest and most exotic of the 3 Nusa islands, thanks to its collection of unique Hindu temples and picturesque natural features of cliff formations and lagoons. More recently, the island became best known as the new sanctuary of the once-endangered Bali starling (originally an endemic species from the forested region of West Bali National Park) following a highly successful captive breeding programme.

Nusa Penida measures over 200 sq km – significantly more significant than the popular Nusa Lembongan and its accessible sister island, Nusa Ceningan. Lesser-travelled than the other 2, Nusa Penida has a minimal number of hotels and tourist features. What it lacks in infrastructure, it makes up for with unspoiled natural beauty and rare cultural highlights.

Broken Beach

Broken Beach is a scenic coastal formation on the southwestern edge of Nusa Penida. Also known by its local name, Pasih Uug, it’s a great spot for travel photographers and anyone who wants to enjoy stunning panoramic views. The place is marked by a hilly rock arch, which is the star landmark of the area.

You can watch the waves crashing in from the Indian Ocean. If you’re lucky, you may spot silhouettes of giant mantas near the surface of the deep blue water. The adjacent area is also home to grey long-tailed macaques.

Angel’s Billabong

Angel’s Billabong is a spectacular rock formation near Pasih Uug (Broken Beach), on the southwestern end of Nusa Penida Island. Both spots offer views of beautiful cliffs and pristine coastlines. A pathway leads to a naturally formed rock lagoon, offering a scenic seascape and pleasant swimming spot on the island.

Kelingking Beach

Kelingking Beach is a secluded and scenic beach in the village of Bunga Mekar on the southwestern coast of Nusa Penida Island. One of its most famous landmarks is a plant-covered limestone headland, with massive waves crashing against it. This unique formation resembles the shape of a T-Rex’s head, so Kelingking is often called the T-Rex Bay of Bali.

Nusa Penida Snorkeling Sites

Enjoy a lovely day in Nusa Penida, just snorkelling! Visit outstanding snorkelling locations off Nusa Penida and soak in the sun and the incredible underwater life of Bali. You will snorkel in Wall Bay, Manta Bay, Gamat Bay and Crystal Bay. These magical spots each have something different to offer. Each with its unique snorkelling adventure and magical underwater beauty is something different to do in Nusa Penida!

Wall Point

The condition of the sea waters at the wall point is relatively shallow. Without snorkelling or diving, we can enjoy the beauty of the coral reefs around the wall point. For tourists who want to learn to snorkel, it would be nice to try the wall point area. Shallow waters and good ocean currents can help you learn to snorkel in this place.

Manta Bay

The location of Manta Bay is in the west of the island of Nusa Penida. Manta Bay is the most famous Nusa Penida Snorkeling Spot. It is of interest to many people to do snorkelling activities, and there are many manta rays around the sea. The size also varies, from minor to measuring more than 1 meter. Manta rays are very friendly with humans who snorkel at the Manta Bay spot. Do not touch manta rays because it can damage the skin of manta rays because manta rays are very sensitive.

Gamat Bay

Gamat Bay is another attractive Nusa Penida Snorkeling Spot that tourists must visit. The location is close to Toya Pakeh or the western part of Nusa Penida. Gamat Beach or Gamat Bay is still very charming. The condition of the waters is immaculate and precise, which is perfect for snorkelling activities.

Crystal Bay

The name of the waters in this place is Penida Beach. Because of the clear seawater in this area, tourists are better known as Crystal Bay Beach. The clarity of the seawater around Crystal Bay is proven when we can see coral reefs and marine fish just by being on a speedboat. Our curiosity paid off when we were able to take the time to dive and feel the sensation of snorkelling at one of the Nusa Penida Snorkeling spots.
