Nusa Penida, consists of 3 islands, namely Nusa Penida Island, Nusa Lembongan, and Nusa Ceningan which are included in one Nusa Penida sub-district in Klungkung Regency-Bali. Penida Island has a tourist attraction that is greatly admired by foreign and local tourists with its enchanting natural beauty and charming marine tourism that is second to none. Nature is rich in panoramic beauty on each of its white sand beaches with clear blue sea water.
The marine park paradise that is most sought after by foreign divers is definitely Nusa Penida which has many world-class diving/snorkeling spots in Bali. Vacationing to Nusa Penida now is the right time to get to know Nusa Penida better in terms of cultural traditions & society as well as exotic natural beauty. Visiting the islands in eastern Bali is very easy and fast via several piers such as:
Sanur Harbor:
