Have you ever visit Bali in Indonesia? Maybe most of you have visited this island once or more. But, did you know that Bali has a lot of islands nearby. One of them is Nusa Penida which is located at south-east of Bali. Other 2 islands at the same location are Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan. Between 3 islands, Nusa Penida is the furthest and largest island.
To reach Nusa Penida, you have to take fastboat from Sanur Beach which takes 30-40 minutes to arrive at Toyapakeh Harbour in Nusa Penida. I suggest you to to bring a shirt and trouser more than one because maybe your pants will get wet when you are in fastboat.
Here's the best spot that I recommend you must visit :
1. Broken Beach (Pasir Uug)
Local people known this beach with a name 'pasir uug' means broken beach. This place is located at Bunga Mekar Village. The main point view you will see the cliff make a form like tunnel or big hole has looks broken, and if you see from above side that hole looks like a bridge. This place is most favourite tourist photostop with the combination of blue ocean. When you see to water, you can watch the blue expanse of water also see a large number of stingrays swimming in the ocean.
Angels Billabong is the river mouth that ends in the sea. There is a rock crush which forms a longitudinal pond at the and of the estuary. To get there, you have to go down at steep rock cliff. But, once you have arrived you will enjoy the freshness of clear greenish-blue ocean, even the part of it, there's green moss grows above the reefs.
To take a picture in the best spot here, make sure you have to wait the at low tide position to go down even swimming. Because the wave is enough dangerous when the sea just rising. This place located in Sakti Village, nearby Broken Beach. You can visit at same day. Ask the local people if you get lost.
This beach is famous with the name T-Rex Beach because the shape of cliffs jutting on the sea is thought resemble a dinosaurus. This place could be put on your list if you are a lover of challenges. Because this place located below the cliff, so that for access is a bit difficult to be reached. But the tourist can enjoy the views from the top of cliff.
The view of white sand that adorns the sea and waves of the sea that directly hit the cliffs around beach. If you want to capture the moment in here, you must be careful to stand above high cliff which has no fences. If you want to reach the shoreline, it will take a time an hour plus you have to going down from cliff approxiamately 150 meter. The road access still not good due to still natural rather steep which made from limestone as you can see in the picture, but it is safe and it will not be slippery after rain.
Make sure you have a good physical strength to pass the road. The water is clear like crystal. This place very recommended to do snorkeling and diving.
