Things to do in Nusa Penida

The scenery was absolutely stunning—I couldn’t stop saying “wow”! These beautiful places made me feel so calm and peaceful. I also want to give a special thanks to my friend and guide for this trip, Oka. He was incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful, which made my trip to Nusa Penida even more wonderful and memorable. Thank you so much, Oka! 😊

Highly recommend this package to all the solo travelers. It saved a lot of my energy. Aria took really nice photos, and I couldn’t do this without him getting in queues and sorting out ticket and driving for me. Making my memory of Nusa Penida perfect.

I absolutely loved my snorkeling activity! Sabare, Fibri, Annik, and Kadek are amazing people! I highly recommend this activity; they are attentive, patient, and take the time to reassure you if needed. They give us all the time we need to take photos and have a great time. I thank them infinitely for this incredible morning that I will never forget! 😇😇😇😇

it was a fun day. our driver and guide Tesa did a fantastic job. He is an excellent driver with great skills on the worst road possible. All the 4 island we visited was worthwhile and we forgot the potholes that we had to drive on!!

The trip offer scenic views. The driver is very expert in driving and navigating the road. The car has A/C to beat the tropical heat. I would suggest wear something light, bring clothes to change and bring mineral water bottles. Each place visited requires us to pay IDR 25,000 to enter so either prepare the cash or can pay by card at the reception counter. Also, I added snorkeling activitiy. The snorkeling experience is magnificent, i get the chance to see Manta Ray and Turtle which is awesome. I would recommend this day trip 10/10 if you already staying at Nusa Penida.

What an amazing day on Penida! we were picked up by our guide, Ariya, who took us to our snorkelling meeting point (even messaged us to make sure we knew what time hed arrive) and helped get us organised! the snorkelling didn't disappoint as we saw a mighty Manta Ray almost as soon as we hit the water. from there we saw reefs and fish and had a great time exploring the flourishing waters of the island. we got back and found Ariya waiting to show us the sights on the Eastern side of the island. his driving left us feeling safe throughout (not his fault the roads are bumpy. lol). the highlight of the afternoon was the twinbgem of Diamond and Atuh Beaches. both amazing. the tour was incredible, start to finish! would highly recommend!

It was such a relief that everyone spoke English. Even when we didn't understand, they used gestures to help us, and they were so polite and kind. As for pictures, they took amazing, professional-quality underwater shots with a GoPro and photos on our phones, capturing so many truly wonderful memories. Everything about it was unforgettable. Although the waves were rough and the water was murky, we still got to see manta rays! I wore long pants and didn't dive underwater, so I didn't get stung by jellyfish, but since a lot of other people were stung, I definitely recommend wearing long sleeves and long pants at the manta ray spot for peace of mind. Thank you so much to Oneill and Paco!

We had an amazing 2-day tour in Nusa Penida with Kadek Wijaya! From start to finish, everything was well-organized, smooth, and stress-free. Kadek was friendly, professional, and always made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. He knows the island very well and took us to all the must-see spots while sharing local insights along the way. Despite the challenging roads in Nusa Penida, we always felt safe with his driving. He was also patient, flexible with our schedule, and happy to help take photos at the best viewpoints. Spending 2 days on the island allowed us to explore both the east and west sides without feeling rushed, and Kadek made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Kadek Wijaya to anyone visiting Nusa Penida and looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and friendly guide. Thank you for helping create unforgettable memories! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We set out early in the morning (4:30 a.m.) for the Thousand Islands and the tree house. We were able to take a few beautiful photos of the sunrise. There are some steep stairs to go down and then back up again 😂 After that, we took a short drive to the Diamond and Atuh Viewpoints. We didn’t go down to either of the two beaches. The path to Diamond Beach was very steep, and it wasn’t worth it to go to Atuh Beach because there wasn’t much water. Instead, we went to the Goa Giri Temple—which is located inside a cave. Arya, our driver and guide, did a great job. As a local, he knows the roads well and was very accommodating of our requests. We were back right on time at 10 a.m.
