More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A morning speedboat cuts across sunrise-silvered water from Sanur and, within an hour, deposits you on the eastern rim of Nusa Penida where sheer limestone cliffs fall into aquamarine rips. The day moves as a sequence of ledges and coves: a carved stairwell to Diamond Beach, the sheltered crescent of Atuh, a rustic tree house on a headland, and the Raja Lima (Thousand Islands) viewpoint that forces you to slow down and look.
