Private Boat Tours to Nusa Penida
BALI PROVINCE
While Bali needs no introduction, the nearby island of Nusa Penida might. Though just a short majestic sail across the Badung Strait from Bali, Nusa Penida could easily be another world away. Still relatively undeveloped compared to its much larger neighbour, our private Day Cruise charters provide an unrivalled way of experiencing all that this unspoilt traditional island has to offer.
Comprising of 41 villages that follow traditional awig-awig law (Balinese Hindu Karma belief system), it’s one of the region’s most authentic destinations. A deliberate lack of dense tourist infrastructure means a boat charter remains, without doubt, the most effective and evocative way of visiting Nusa Penida.
From the very beginning of our day cruises, as we depart the harbour at Serangan in Bali to cross the Badung Strait, spectacular ocean vistas dotted with the shadowy shapes of mountains on nearby tropical islands, open up before you.
Lay back and relax as our experienced staff guide you towards Penida’s attractive sea cliffs, secluded bays, and lush foliage bedecked with an incredible array of bird species. The island is home to highly endangered Bali starlings, Mitchell’s lorikeet, and sulphur crested cockatoos, thanks to the sanctuary created by the agreement of the villagers.
But without doubt Nusa Penida’s top attractions are even more closely linked to its lapping waters, making a boat charter the perfect way to experience them. What better way could there be to approach the magic of Kelingking beach than by private charter? Surrounded by almost sheer cliffs, this secluded arc of pristine sand will leave you feeling like you’re the only people on earth.
Then there’s Angel’s Billabong, a coastal pool and natural rock arch beloved of Instagrammers the world over, with the best views perhaps from neighbouring Broken Beach.
You can also explore Crystal Bay, one of Nusa Penida’s most tranquil stretches of sand and beautiful palm fringed bays, whether you’re happy gazing out to the bay’s pillar of rock from the sands, or intent on splashing about in the cool waters from the deck of our boat. Why not go even further, slip on a snorkel, and delve beneath the rippling waters of Crystal Bay or Toyapakeh, to gasp at the incredible underwater world you find yourself in. And then there’s the secret secluded beach that we can only show you once you’re here!
