Top 10 Must-Visit Places in Nusa Penida (With Entry Fees & Tips)

The rugged island of Nusa Penida is the jewel of Bali, with dramatic cliffs, unspoilt beaches, and pools of nature, which attract adventurers despite the coarse roads. Adults IDR 25,000 (USD 1.60) and children IDR 15,000 charge on entry via fast boat—pay at entry point at Sanur (IDR 200K-300K RT). The best places are the T-Rex cliff of Kelingking Beach (free parking IDR 5K, early to avoid tourists), the white sands of Diamond Beach (IDR 45K, 15 -min cliff descent), and the infinity pool at Angel’s Billabong (free, no swimming because of the tides). Hire scooters (IDR 70K/day), hire drivers (IDR 500K), come in dry season, May-Oct. 2026 updates say better routes, but they may be eroded, making it a great add-on after visiting Monkey Forest Ubud.
