If you are a boat enthusiast or need a more relaxing type of trip during your holiday in Bali, a private boat tour to Nusa Penida is the answer.
Nusa Penida is one of the less populated islands that are still within the range of Bali Island. Compared to the other two Nusa islands namely Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan, Penida is by far the most populated one. If you think that this is too far from Bali, you are wrong. Nusa Penida is only a boat away from the mainland of Bali. The amount of tourists visiting, both domestic and international, keeps increasing in the past few years. Hence, when the busy season comes, not only Bali but also Nusa Penida is usually very packed with cars driving tourists to different tourist spots.
Unlike the center and the eastern part of Nusa Penida, the western area of the island is rugged and rather dry with very minimal infrastructure. If you expect tap water to be available in this part of the island, alas, most locals are buying it from water trucks coming to the area once every two to three days. Oh, not to mention if the trucks are not coming to spare them water, locals will still beat it by the rainwater that they have collected throughout the wet season in small wells placed in the back of their house compound.
Although most locals have lived well despite the lack of water in this limestone land, at least until recent years, they are still very blessed with the beauty of the land. God only knows how Kelingking Beach, Angel Billabong, and Broken Beach were created because it literally gives you goosebumps each time you stand there to admire the eye-pleasing view. The eastern part is also not less alluring to see.
The coastal road that leads you to the known Atuh Cliff and Diamond Beach will give you enough contentment. Indeed, the limestone land of Penida adds to the usually tropical heat that you will experience during your time on the island. Worry not, enough sun protection, hydration, and preparation will be keys to getting on your unparalleled Nusa Penida journey!
During the busy season, many people will visit this rugged yet bewitching island, thus public shared boats are usually cramped by the visitors. A private boat tour to Nusa Penida is one smart solution for you who like a private experience, especially when enjoying the spectacular scenery of the island.
Bali itself has some harbors used as public ports namely the famous Benoa Harbor, Serangan Harbor, Mertasari Harbor, and Matahari Terbit Harbor all located in South Bali, Padangbai Harbor in East Bali, and all the way to North Bali is – the usually utilized as bigger boats or cruise ships Celukan Bawang.
