The island of Nusa Penida is renowned for its awe-inspiring beaches that can be classified into two distinct categories. These categories include beaches that are ideal for purely sightseeing and those that are appropriate for engaging in various fun summer activities.
It is noteworthy that the rocky nature of Nusa Penida island impedes access to certain beaches. Visitors should, therefore, expect to engage in some form of hiking when exploring the island's beaches, since even the more accessible ones necessitate traversing steep paths to reach them.
Visitor reviews highlight the stunning scenery, beautiful sunrise, and nice spots for sunbathing at the beach. Visitors complain about the challenging terrain and steep stairs, the difficulty of swimming due to rocky bottoms and active waves, and the crowds of people blocking the stairs for photos.
Visitors to Nusa Penida often stay in the areas of Toyapakeh and Crystal Bay, which offer easy access to the island's stunning beaches. While accommodations may not be directly on the beach, these areas provide a good base for exploring both the sightseeing and activity-friendly beaches of the island.
