The boat was great, arrived and left on time from Gilli T and arrived in Nusa earlier than expected. It was a little choppy towards the end for the last 10 mins but that can’t be helped due to sea conditions. Would recommend and would use again

On the way from Gili T to Penide there were three more stops on Gili Meno, Air and Lombok where in the description it is clearly written that the first stop is Penida. On the ship, water collected on the floor during the cruise. We arrived an hour late.

It seems the air conditioning isn't working properly because it was so hot inside that it was hard to breathe. What's more annoying is that the boat had several leaks, and you're dripping with water throughout the entire trip. 3 stars because the crew is attentive but could improve the experience if the boat were properly maintained.

How do you get around in Nusa Penida?

Transportation on Nusa Penida primarily involves renting scooters or hiring private drivers, as public transportation is limited. Renting a scooter costs around IDR 70,000-100,000 per day ($5-$7). Ensure you have a valid international driving license and wear a helmet for safety. Alternatively, hiring a private car with a driver typically costs about IDR 600,000-900,000 for a full day ($40-$60). This option is recommended for those unfamiliar with local driving conditions, as roads can be narrow and uneven.

For shorter distances, you can also negotiate rides with local ojek (motorbike taxis). Always agree on the fare beforehand. Walking is feasible in some areas but not recommended for longer distances due to the island's size and hilly terrain.

Can I brush my teeth with tap water in Nusa Penida?

It is generally recommended to use bottled water for brushing your teeth in Nusa Penida. Tap water on the island is not considered safe for drinking or oral hygiene purposes due to potential contamination.

Respect local customs by dressing modestly, especially when visiting temples. Remove shoes and wear a sarong if required. Note that public displays of affection may be frowned upon.

Water tap quality is not safe for drinking; rely on bottled water to avoid health risks.

When exploring beaches and cliffs, prioritize safety. Avoid swimming in areas with strong currents, and be cautious near cliff edges.

Renting a scooter is a popular way to explore, but ensure you have a valid international driving license and wear a helmet. Daily rentals are around IDR 70,000-100,000 ($4.50-$6.50).

Respect local wildlife and do not disturb marine life when snorkeling or diving.

Avoid littering to help preserve the island's natural beauty. Dispose of trash properly and recycle where possible.
