Nusa Penida Day Trips: Making the Most of Them from an Aqua Nusa Base

Nusa Penida Day Trips: Making the Most of Them from an Aqua Nusa Base

Kelingking, Angel's Billabong and Diamond Beach are worth the trip, but the smarter move is basing yourself on Nusa Lembongan rather than staying on Penida itself, where roads are rougher and comforts thin out once the day-trip boats leave.

Staying at Ohana's or an AQUA NUSA villa puts you fifteen to twenty minutes from Penida's harbours by boat — close enough for a full day of sightseeing while sleeping somewhere considerably more comfortable. Head out early with a private or small-group tour, cover the main sights, and be back on Lembongan in time for Ohana's sunset bonfire or a relaxed dinner at Nisi or Bar Riva.

It's a pattern most guests in the group's properties end up following: base on Lembongan, day-trip to Penida, come home to a proper bed and a decent meal.
