Places To Visit In Nusa Penida
Mountain Biking in Nusa Penida
Indulge in the ultimate adventure in Nusa Penida’s verdant mountains overlooking the ocean and fields, with mountain biking tours providing unspoiled views. Day tours on bikes are an ideal way to explore the island’s picturesque forested peaks, including Teletubbies Hill, Bukit Menasah, Bukit Melangit, Bukit Pirerekan, and Majong Hill, and visit many ancient temple ruins along the way.
Nusa Ceningan
A small island between Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Ceningan is connected to Lembongan island by the iconic Yellow Bridge, titled the “Bridge of Love”. The rocky cove and deep water of the Nusa Ceningan Blue Lagoon offer a safe spot for cliff jumping. It also offers a notable surf break, excellent natural attractions, and a stunning sunset view over Bali from the central Ceningan ridge.
Take pictures at the Blue Lagoon, try cliff jumping at Mahana Point, visit the Cengingan Cliff Point, explore the Secret Beach, explore an underwater garden, and hike the entire island. The landscape of Nusa Ceningan is a picturesque one, dotted with seaweed patches, fishing activities, and mangrove plantations all around. A narrow yellow suspension bridge connects the two islands. Untouched by the rush of tourism, Nusa Ceningan is a sight for sore eyes. Located in the southwestern part of the island, the Secret Beach is a peaceful secluded spot. There is a clifftop point from where you can take a panoramic snap of the Blue Lagoon. This is also the second cliff-jumping point on Nusa Ceningan after Mahana Point. Maha Point Bar, adjacent to the Pura Batu Melawang Temple, manages two diving platforms at 5m and 13m. Make sure the tides are safe for jumping, and always wear reef shoes. Both these points are incredible for viewing sunsets as well. If you are an adrenaline junkie, try the Abyss Zipline inside Island Cove Resort and enjoy an unobstructed view of the blue vastness as you slide down the cable. Ceningan Wall is Nusa Ceningan’s only diving spot. Here you will come across a charming underwater garden where the coral reef has been further beautified with Moorish idols. Expect to spot swarms of clownfish, marbled rays, scorpion fish, stonefish, mola-molas, moray eels, and more. Nusa Ceningan does not have too many hotels despite the developments in recent years. There are a few villas with ocean-view rooms, like The Bridge Huts and Svaha Private Villas, but tourists mostly prefer to visit the island on a day trip and return to Nusa Lembongan for an overnight stay.

Suwehan Beach is a secluded, untarnished beach in Nusa Penida which is yet to become too popular for throngs of tourists to crowd it. With white smooth sand dotted with jagged rock formations, clear blue waters in front, and forested limestone cliffs behind, Suwehan almost feels like a private beach. A pointy rock rising from the sea surface set against the blue horizon makes a great setting for excellent Instagram-worthy pictures.
Reaching Suwehan Beach is an adventure in itself. You will have to start from the top of a big cliff, where you will need to park your vehicle and climb down along a treacherous rocky trail. The path has now been shaped into steps by the local authorities and has a protective railing. The hike down the 342 steps takes about 20 minutes. Before heading down, you should stop at the Abangan Hills viewpoint to take a picture worth capturing. Check with your accommodation or local guide about the tide timings for the day. The beach is not accessible during high tides as it gets submerged. If lucky, you can spot sea turtles, monitor lizards, and manta rays near the beach. The locals have built some treehouses where you can spend the night if you want to. It is not a luxury accommodation, but the indoors look cozier than the thatched hut-like outside appearance. The bathroom and shower are outside the treehouse. There is a small shack for ordering food. Do not expect any resort, restaurant, bar, or convenience store at the beach. There are shops at the parking lot where the downward trail starts.
