Nusa Penida West Island Day Trip with Snorkeling

Tour overview

Nusa Penida’s west coast is famous for its cliffs: the T-Rex shaped headland at Kelingking, the natural arch of Broken Beach, and the turquoise pool of Angel’s Billabong.

We handle the fast boat tickets, a private car and driver on the island, lunch, and a snorkel trip to Crystal Bay and Manta Point — so the whole day runs smoothly from your hotel door and back.

Experience story

The wild island across the strait

Turquoise natural pool surrounded by rocks on Nusa Penida

Forty-five minutes by fast boat from Sanur, Nusa Penida feels like Bali thirty years ago: narrow roads, tiny villages, and cliffs that drop straight into deep blue water.

The morning is for the viewpoints, before the crowds and the midday heat. After lunch you swap the car for a boat and snorkel among reef fish — and, from May to October, the graceful manta rays that feed at Manta Point.

FAQ

Common questions

Mantas are wild, but sightings at Manta Point are very common, especially from May to October.
